Hi

I need a square taper chainset for my girlfriends new bike. Nothing fancy but functional.

Ideally sub £20 but might be persuaded by the right chainset.

I guess 8 speed/3-32 but 1/8 might also work. Preferably with a 32t-46t chain ring or in a 104 BCD and if it comes with a 103mm-107mm bottom bracket then even better!

Generally free to collect around the London area.

Thanks!

I've got a basic set of suntour 4-bolt cranks, 104mm bcd, going for just £6. Check my clearout thread. Might be able to find a BB too, what shell width are you after?

Yeah looks suitable

I'm not 100% sure on BB length, probably 103mm. Just eye balling it with the wheel in it looks like the chain ring will have to sit over the BB shell (as apposed to outside of it).

Whereabouts in SW are you based?

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

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