I've started looking around for a crank, most likely single ring for my Stallard frame.
Not sure what it was fitted with originally, the groupset was Huret.
I've seen a similar bike fitted with a Williams splined crank, but that looks pricey as they didn't make many (must have been one of the first splined cranks I'd have thought)...there are a myriad of other Williams cranks that could do the job, however having researched them a little have been rather put off by one of their old, very racist adverts, i know it was a different time, but blimey!
So I'm thinking Stronglight or TA, these would both sit well, as PTS was well known for using French components and was very influenced by French frame design etc.
I suppose a Campy Nuovo whatever might be nice too.
I'd prefer to stay away from Japanese on this build as my Knight will be all Japanese.
Anyone have any experience of any of the above in terms of quality etc.
