Hi, hoping to get some assistance with a kid's 26er build.
I'm contemplating a Tideace FM-M001 26er frame. It comes with a BB92 bottom bracket. I'm going with a Microshift Acolyte 8 sp shifter, RD, and cassette that I'm going to set up as 1x. I just need a crank set that will be compatible, I'll probably go 30 or 32t ion the ring. It just has to have shorter cranks, 150mm max, 140mm preferred. The full bike FM-M001 picture shows a Trailcraft crankset, but 1) it's a bit pricey, 2) I can't get a human who works there to respond to my questions.
Any other suggestions? I'm not in a super hurry. I'm looking to put this together sometime in June.
Thanks!
Edit: Trailcraft got back to me. For anybody, ever, going to be in the same boat, yes, a Trailcraft crankset will fit a BB92 bottom bracket. Additionaly, the FM-001 comes with an adaptor to run SRAM 22/24 cranksets if need be. The Trailcraft cranks fit single SRAM based chainrings. They have their own chainrings which are kid sized but are optimized for 10 - 12 speed. They will run 8 spd though.
