I have an old raleigh built BSA frame with a cottered 71mm BB shell. I want to change it to a cotter less and I have looked around and a VO thread less BB should fit but was wondering what crankset to use. I am doing this slightly backwards I know, but there is a VO thread less on ebay that will fit, it is 107mm, but I cannot find a crankset that uses this, maybe an FSA Gimondi? Does anyone have any recommendations as to what transmission combination would be suitable?
Many thanks!
