    Wanted Square taper 5 bolt crankset, 170-175mm

    Hello all. First post in a very long time! I promised to convert my dad's bike to single ring at the front for him, but little did I know, his 1995 STX-RC has some weird shit going on where the big ring bolts to a weirdly shaped middle ring rather than to the crank arms?!

    Re: Thanks Chris, sounds really nice, maybe a bit nicer than I was looking for to be honest, I'm really looking for a sub-£50 shonker.

    Does anyone work in the bike industry?

    So does anyone on here work for Orange or Kona, or Hope or USE or someone like that? Or even a local bike shop?
