Which Cranks for CK BB?
I'm helping a friend build up a frame with better parts. She's got a Traitor Ruben Flatbar, and we're converting to SS with a CK ISO SS Rear hub. My friend's going to go with 170mm cranks, so we should have a good pick of brands - but what will work best for converting to SS/fixed (straight chain line with stay clearance)?
Suggestions for cranks would be great! (the BB relies on spindle diameter - we're going with the one that fits: Threadfit 24, but what conversion kit we get is dependent upon the spindle, #8 for 24/22, #9 for 24) I'm assuming 24mm is what we'll be looking for, since the 22/24 is stepped for two chain rings, right? If any 24mm cranks will work, then I'm asking a very stupid question...

Thanks in advance!
