• I am on the look out for a compact octalink crankset. I believe I am looking for octalink V1: it is to go with a DA BB7700 (Only 170g!)

    I believe the FC-R345 is my only readily available option but I was wandering if somebody is aware of any others.

    Here is a list of all the ones that were once in production (that I know of):

    • There was a Ritchey WCS crankset made for octalink (Somebody made a post about this a month ago but nobody responded)
    • They made the Sugino Alpina for Octalink at one point
    • Cannondale Coda Expert (Seems to be pretty rare; very light)
    • FSA Gossamer/SLK/carbon pro (most of these were ISIS drive but I think the made some with Octalink)
    • Maybe something else from Shimano; Sora or Claris (e.g. FC-2450 but it weighs 1kg)
    • Stronglight Pulsion (Very light)
    • Deda D-power (This might have been isis drive only)?
    • M.D. ST?
    • Look, Time, ITM, Deda possibly?

    I am trying to cast as wide a net as possible. Please let me know if you are aware of any others.

    Thanks
