Wtf is up with people direct mounting brakes by the bb? Literally the dumbest thing - clearly none of these people have never actually cleaned a bike before.
Also Ed, please stop talking out your arse about dura ace track cranks. Yes outboard BB's are easier to maintain but octalink bb's have been around for yonks (and so by definition are as standard as any other commonly used BSA bb) and the cranks themselves are as good as (if not better than) any other track specific production cranks. Look's one piece carbon jobs excepted.
