That sucks man. what kind of cranks are they? I have Sugino RD's, which are already throwing my chainline off as it is. This could just be a blessing in disguise to go out and get some cheap Andels/Aliens/Soma/whatever, or spring the money for 75's. Anyone have good expericnes with the Miche cranks, ones with 135 bcd? I've heard the downsides to them, but they're cheap as hell on bikeisland.
