Wanted 80s ISO taper Triple Chainset - Stronglight, etc

[sjcprojects]

I'm looking for an ISO taper Triple Chainset - so probably something like Stronglight, TA, etc. Needs to work with the rather long 124mm Stronglight BB I have.

If Stronglight, then standard extractor thread please (which I think means post 1982?). Not too fussed on condition as long as they are reasonable.

Got a Campag Chorus or Centaur (Road). Choice of outer ring, 48 or 53, 39 middle and 30 inner. Also with BBs to suit. Say £50 for the Chorus, £40 for Centaur, £15 each for the bottom brackets?

Thanks @hamster - I realise I should have been more specific - I’m going to keep the BB I have which is a 130mm Stronglight one (one of those asymmetrical ones).

I think Campagnolo triples only use a 115 or similar? Certainly I would think they would sit too far out for a decent chainline?

Sorry about that, I’ll edit my original post…was up too late last night!

No problem, yep they take 110-115mm. Definitely you would be pedaling like a duck!

IIRC there was a 49D or similar on the Cycling UK forum earlier this week. You can get them to run as triples with the longer chainring bolts.

Thanks - yes, I think 49D and 99 models can run triples with the right bolts, but those are pretty hard to come by, I think (I know there are still longer bolts for newer Stronglight models available but I have no idea if they work with older models, I suspect not).

I don't think there is any difference in the bolts TBH. The chainring holes are the same diameter and the rings the same thickness.

Hmmm...you may very well be right. Anyway, I think I'll still keep an eye out for a triple chainset because once I've bought a double, plus bolts and a chainring, it's probably about the same cost all in all, if not more.

Pardon our interruption...

Ah - yes, thanks! I am actually already watching that one, so fingers crossed.
