BB to use with Stronglight road double?
I would like to use a late 80s Stronglight road double for a single speed conversion but I'm unsure the correct BB length. Given the bike won't ever be a fixed gear, it's my girlfriends, the chainline doesn't have to be perfect but I would rather it be better than worse. Any ideas?

Scroll down and look for your model...and remember that the chain line indicated for doubles is between the two rings.
