Rereading this thread as I'm considering the Sugino OX901D crank and just wanted to acknowledge this beautiful bike and thank the owner for his informative posts.

@Mark Manner, how does Sugino deal with chainline? Spacers? What bottom bracket are you using?

My frame is PF30 and I'm using an Enduro TorqTite PF30 to Shimano 24mm bottom bracket with Ultegra compact road cranks. If I need lower gears the the Sugino would be my choice and I'm hoping that it would drop in without having to change out an expensive bottom bracket.
