any reccommendations for bottom bracket for surly steamroller?

what cranks are you planning on using? how much are you willing to spend?

Depends on what cranks you'll be using....

ill take recs on a good crank/BB setup. not looking to spend a lot but if its quality id be willing to spend some extra bucks

well, the next question would be whether you want to run true track cranks or just run road cranks. as for track cranks, check out https://www.businesscycles.com/trcomp.htm#crankset the stronglight and miche track cranks are the least expensive... a few people on the board use the miche's. i don't think anyone has a real complaint about them, except the propriatary bcd. ta-alize is another manufacturer that makes inexpensive track cranks.

some people have used dotek bmx cranks. they're dirt cheap and use a standard iso taper bottom bracket, which are easily obtained.

i would suggest scouring ebay for cranks too. you'll want them 170mm to 165mm on a fixed gear.

thanks isotopesope

I picked up a Shimano 105 square taper crank on ebay. FC-1050. I just need to use a 107mm bottom bracket to have the chainline match up with the cog. Same with the Sora cranks you might see on ebay. Sheldon Brown says they are the same cranks, just different chainrings (steel opposed to aluminum)
