Does any manufacturer make a 177.5 crank with compact rings?
I'd rather go this way than triple on my last bike.

TA Carmina, replacement for the late lamented Zephyr.
110bcd and 94bcd, double and triples, lots of lengths, pick your rings.

TA Carmina is the only one in 177.5. I searched and searched. I wanted a 180 or larger. In 180 it is Stronglight Zlight Compact or TA Carmina. No Zlight in 177.5.

DaVinci (of tandem fame).

I swear by this product. Well made, very light if that matters and a gorgeous finish.

I've been frustrated by the lack of crank length choice in compact cranks, too. Bittersweet, do you know who carries the Stronglight Z'light crank in 180?

For a while, there were a few Truvativ Rouleur compacts available in 180, but it seems they've sold out. Bikeman in Maine could get them last winter, but now they can't find them anywhere.
