Hello JonE
I think I have decided to go down the Phoenix 1 1/8" route if I can find one.
While I agree that it would probably be sensible to change to 1 5/16" crank, I have a couple of minor issues.
Firstly I would need to purchase rods and a flywheel etc.
Secondly and more importantly to me is the question of custodianship after my time.
While I am not too fussy about originality, in the future when a new owner needs to buy parts they will know what to order (and me as the grey cells diminish).
Just my personal opinion.
Adrian.
