Subject: [CR] WTB: three arm crankset
This month I'll be building up my RIC a little better than it currently is, however I'm toying with the idea of using a three-arm crankset similar to what is represented by the headtube badge. The badge is probably is not meant to represent a precise crankset as much as just a graphic symbol. However I think it would be "cool" to actually use one of those since I can't afford the original crankset, a 1st generation Campagnolo.
This is a link to a photo of the badge: http://s343.photobucket.com/albums/o476/chileros_bikes/RIC%20-%20new%20photos%20as%20currently%20built/?action=view¤t=P1040507.jpg
Again, the idea is to use a three-arm, cottered crank, slotted spider, double ring. The Magistroni cotered crank with slotted spider shown on Velobase looks very close but shown with a single chainring, did they come with a double ring option? Also Velobase has a catalong picture of a Stronglight Diamant No. 52 but only shows the arms, no chainrings. Lastly there was a Simplex Ganna (sp?) on ebay last month which seems to fit the bill. All suggestions are welcome and if someone has one of these just lying around collecting dust I'd be happy to take it off your hands, just contact me off list.
