Hi guys hope you all good and sound
I want to run a smaller crank on my trackframe after bending the 1 spider arm of my omniums.
Have a few in mind in the line of the Shimano zee or Saint who do in 68mm width.
I'd like to know if that will give me major chainline issues? p.e. the zee has 50.4mm chainline that potentially could be sorted with cog spacers if there is thread on the hub for the spacers+cog+lockring...
Q: Any alternative small bcd crank suggestions that can maintain the chainline?
wanted to avoid bmx cranks because they tend to be less spinny and huge q-factor but if has to be, it will be as a last resource.
I am running BLB King hub, my shell is 68mm. Rear spacing is 120mm.
Changing wheelset also out of question because that will imply spending £, but I am aware that a Halo fix-g per example could help, but again, would require rebuilding my wheelset where I already invested £.
Thanks in advance
