Crankset to correct an out of alignment bb

[mustamusta]

Greetings fellow Rbikers,
I had ordered an incorrect bottom bracket for a project a few years ago. And left it on the backburner ever since. And now want to get a crankset with the right dish to make the build a possibility. Without needing to waste the BB I have.

Will check the exact size of the bb I have. And update here.

Normally BBs are cheaper than cranksets, but let us know. Generally speaking, older cranksets with straight arms will give a narrower chainline with a longer BB. The Andel track crankset is a new alterntive, and looks like old Campag Record if you squint. I've had to solve chainline issues on...er...14 bikes, so I can give some suggestions!

The issue I had was that it is an Italian threaded BB. And I suffered to locate a new one few years back.
I guess if I find someone interested in a swap with someone who is in a similar situation as myself (both having the length the other needs) could opt for that option. Just don't want to go through buying another BB, and add to the spares box, which I need to light up as is. Need to lighten the bike component load and a few bikes from the ones I didn't use in recent months.

Many many thanks for your offer. Will PM you once I get the bike out of the garage. And take the BB off
