Profile style BMX cranks with either 19mm or 22mm axle and a Spanish BB to suit the axle size.
Pretty sure you can now get 24mm axle BMX cranks, but doubt you’d find a BB to suit as Mid BBs eventually won that battle.

cheers, kind of what i suspected. The frame i have seen is cheap, but has spanish BB. If i have to spend 100 pounds on cranks it negates the cost of the frame..

You could probably pick up some 2nd hand 48 spline cranks? BBs aren’t expensive.

thanks! Thing is the frame is 150 euros. plus bb and cranks is approx 250 all in. we are then into a price range for where there is alot of choice of frames that work with MTB cranks..  I suppose i could sell the cranks i have!
