So I'd love a Campag pista crankset but wondered what I'd have to pay for a good used set?
Also what BB would be needed for a Cervelo T1 with said crankset. (68mm English).
Cheers Jon.

You'll need a Campag Pista BB to go with it - the square taper is not exactly the same as ISO or JIS, it's the older, Campagnolo proprietary taper.

When fixie became trendy in 2008/9 we have a lot of split LH cranks from dealers not realising this and mounting the cranks onto BBs where the taper length was too short.

Cheers for the info Graeme, I run a record square taper on my road bike so I'm familiar with that set up but presumed the track bike would be different.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
