Yes, yes. i know its useless to convert it, so i don't want to hear it from anybody.
i already bought the FMF conversion kit and BB (110x68 un26) and i just need a set of cranks that'll give it a decent chainline (i have Velocities with formula hubs if that helps)

Why did you buy the bottom bracket before the crank?

people doing the same conversion recommended 110mm so i just took their word for it. i just assumed it has something to do with the conversion.
