hey gyeswho,
i had the same problem when i ran my miche primato advanced crankset on my cinelli. i ran a campy record double bb with a spacer to get the closest chainline possible to a 42 (ended up with a 42.5 which i cant complain about) but my spider arms would only touch the chain stays when i flex the cranks with my hands but never had a problem under heavy torqueing. but on my non drive side it rubbed just as your picture to about that much extent. i dunno if you would want to do it but i corrected it by slowly grinding the corner of the crank arm off with a dremel. worked like a charm and havent had a problem wih it since. |

Here are some post holiday updates on my Trek T1.
Primarily, Selle San Marco Ponza saddle, white bar wrap, changed the spd's to straps for the winter, and Easton Delta Force bullhorns (not pctured) http://img21.imageshack.us/img21/7791/76546834mk3.jpg http://img22.imageshack.us/img22/3931/40305446wr4.jpg http://img16.imageshack.us/img16/1544/24571404zp8.jpg |

I would choose what ever crankset you really want and gives you the best chain line and then dremel it. The spot that you would have to dremel won't do anything structurally to crank at all, that part of the crank isn't even under stress really. |

Thanks. It's the end of the arms that kiss the stays, but it's because the stays are so round and fat compared to ovalized stays. I have to call Tom and see what he says about it.

The spot that you would have to dremel won't do anything structurally to crank at all, that part of the crank isn't even under stress really. That part of the crank doesn't even structurally help your pedals stay on. I mean, it's only the part of the bike that you put MOST of your weight on, no problem. Slice and dice..... Please don't do anything to that crank. You could seriously injure yourself. See: http://pardo.net/pardo/bike/pic/fail/FAIL-001.html |

idiot.

okay, never mind you convinced me it's a bad idea, but still i'd want to ride my bike

There are many things you can do.
Buy shorter cranks, for one. Do some research. |
