Thanks, Pattrick. Fortunately this is a '71 built mostly for track racing,
so the bb is pretty darn high, almost 28cm with the 32-584s. Another way of

tires put the pedals at risk of striking in corners? My Riv fixies were

width) tires -- 24 1/2" tall -- I'd clip my KEOs in corners if I wasn't
careful.
