Cranks - Ritchey Logic compact, Specialized/Sugino Flag, VO 50.4BCD

[559Rando]

The singularly good looking Ritchey Logic (made by Sugino) triple set up with 2 110BCD rings: a 44 and a 29. 177.5 length. Very clean. Nice compact crankset, with option to be a triple. Super low Q (tread). Includes low miles (<1000) Dura Ace 74xx square taper bottom bracket and Campy bolts. $100 + shipping

Not long enough for you? I have 180mm Specialized "flag" triple for your classic mtb build. $85 + shipping

Not retrogrouch enough? I have a 170mm Velo Orange MK1 50.4BCD (TA copy) with matching bb (good bb). Rings are 46-30, have 4000 miles on them. Dirty, needs loving. Bought from the Bicycle Quarterly garage sale; never used by me. $45 + shipping

Pics coming in a day or two or three. Plus more as I clean out my garage!

I have my ritcheys set up in the same exact way, except with a record bb.
Someone snap those up, awesome cranks at a good price.

...set up with 2 110BCD rings: a 44 and a 29....

Are you sure about this? Perhaps they're the 'compact' Ritchey's at 94/58bcd? Or, is the 29 on the 74bcd innermost ring?

The Sugino/Ritchey's are great cranks, and this combination, if it works, interests me.

WADR, that's a no-no. The Campy BB's tapers are different than the JIS standard tapers accepted by the Sugino/Ritcheys. While I'm sure it's working, you don't have a proper spindle to crank seating and you're cutting grooves in one or the other. Campy BB's are great, but they need to stay with Campy cranksets.

VO putting on hold, too.

It could be 94BCD now that you say that...

Sheldon Brown used to mix and match tapers.

I'm trying to get out the door, but I'll take pics of the other stuff tonight!

Thats how it came on the bike I purchased it with, so I just left it alone. No problems.

definitely a 94. good setup, i have some old white industries with 46/29 (makes for slightly challenging front shifts) on my randonneur.

more nice chainring options for em here: http://www.xxcycle.com/chainring-mtb-trekking,en.php

VOs are on hold for me, i hope? :) if not, bummer!

PM sent on Specialized cranks.

ToastToast, Puget Pounder wrote me a wee bit earlier.
I'll try to figure this all out ASAP.

At this point, everything is on hold. I'll try to be better organized, have pics up front when I post more stuff for sale. I'm trying to get my garage and house organized. And a big part of that is purging. And storage...some/all of these funds will go to some garage storage.

I made a little list here at work of other stuff I need to get rid of...

Nitto lugged stem (120??)
SR Laprade
Deore 50.4BCD touring triple with Dyna Drive pedals 170mm
Copper MKS GR-9 pedals (new; decided too small for my size 13 feet)
Specialized Stumpjumper bars ('85-ish)
Nitto RM-013 Dirt Drop bars
Pletscher front rack
Campy quill pedals
Campy 52T NR ring

[toasttoast]

Ah, too bad!

The Dyna Drive set has me intrigued now, though...

[eacolin]

If those VOs had been 175mm I would be crying now - have been looking for a cheap set of those for a while, these would have been perfect. Thank goodness for long legs. Too bad the deore cranks are also 170mm.

Some pics of the VO crank and bb (118mm) and Specialized 180mm flag triple:

I have a few people interested in the VO crankset up. Note there are no crank bolts (missplaced? didn't get them?)

The Specialized is not as clean as I remember, so I'm going to lower the price to $70 INCLUDING shipping (shipping that Ritchey today cost me $13...)

still happy to be #2 in line for the VOs

also fyi, priority flat rate envelope will easily fit most cranksets, go across the country for 5-6 bucks
