Of the affordable 1x square taper cranks out there, I happen to like this one the best.  Something about the shape appeals to me.  It’s classic but not a watered down historical reenactment.  5 bolts mean if you have a loose bolt or two you have 3 more that will keep the chainring on.  There are two useful 5 bolt types, the 94 bcd and the 110.  The latter is far more common, and lets you run chainrings between 53 and 34t.  The Rollcii crankset comes in a 130 bcd or a 110, but we only carry the 110, cause we like the ability to run chainrings smaller than 40t.  The cranksets currently come stocked with a 34t Rollcii chainring.  

This crankset will work on the following framesets we stock:   

Veloci Plan Big (118 spindle),  

Old Street (110 spindle)

Disko 80’s (118 Spindle)

Bassi Bloomfield (110 Spindle)

Le Montreal (115 spindle for 130mm hub, 118 for 135mm hub

Velo Orange Polyvalent (118mm spindle)

any Rivendell (118mm spindle) 

All City Super Professional / Space Horse (118 spindle)

JIS square taper spindle.  We recommend either the Stronglight metal cup bottom bracket or the more affordable plastic cup unit.  

If you need a different tooth count for the chainring, we recommend either Wolftooth or Garbaruk.  Pair either with the stock chainring bolts, stainless chainring bolts or Wolftooths’ nice aluminum ones. Includes crank bolts also.
