Double - for a 24" junior racer project; with alloy rings if possible.

Shopgoodwill.com still has some shorter Cobb Racing cranksets, although they're modern 2pc style

I have the Cobbs in 155 but they're very dear last I looked, they are only made for 10-speed and up. And I use mine. I call them Senior Racers with knee replacements.
edit, I just looked and saw the 160's for $70 US. Wow. These were $400 Canadian several years ago but they included the BB. And they don't ship to Canada
