"I'm building up a single speed/fixed gear commuter and I need cranks. Ideally, I'm looking for (but I'm willing to compromise):

- double or single chainring cranks
- accepts square tapered bottom bracket
- 172.5 or shorter (the shorter, the better)
- 130mm or 110mmBCD or other ""standard"" size
- 5 arms
- cosmetic damage ok
- cheap - less than +-$30

Thanks!

Craigslist posts

I read the bicycle ads on craigslist every day. Has anyone else noticed that several of them have poped up on this message board recently.

I have no problem with NYCC members posting items for sale. Something tells me the craigslist posts might not be members :)

I have been wrong before, and I might be again!

how about functional?

"I've got a set of Ultegra cranks that meets all of your requirements. Not only real cheap, but super light weight, too. One caveat though. Cosmetic damage includes missing 1/2 a crank arm. Who needs a whole when simply one crank arm will do, preferably a left one. Afterall, it hasn't slowed one of NYC's finest messengers Dexter Benjamin

Email me if interested (take the ""at"" and ""dot"" garbage out of the email address of course.)"

Yes, I have posted my Look for sale on Craig's list as well as here and I am an NYCC member.
