I've just ordered a EAI Bareknuckle frame and would appreciate some advice on whether fitting it out with parts I already own will be possible.

1. Campy SR chainset, planning to get single bolts to convert but what BB should I use? It's english thread but do I need to make allownaces for a road crank, can I use current models of Campy BB or any suggestions for makes/models that will fit this frame with these cranks would be very handy?

2. Has 1 1/8 steerer, any chance I can fit an old cinelli (quill - 1R) stem or would it be much less hassle just to get an A head?

Thanks.

The Bareknuckle uses a threadless headset/stem. You can't use a quill.

I find a 107mm Miche BB works well with a campy road crank and the chainring on the outside. It has adjustable cups, so you can adjust chainline a mm or so either way.

Thanks for replies - I'll take a look at the Miche.

if you get the miche, just make sure you sure you use some blue locktite on the threads. i hear they have a tendency to come loose, but that could just the italian threaded ones. (which would make sense, due to the way they're tapped.) just a heads up

If you put the appropriate torque on the miche bb, you won't have any problem. The appropriate torque is, however, more than you might think.
