ok heres the answer, 401 full wrap, single pinch flights do fit on a modern twin pinch spindle, i pulled two bikes apart this evening to try it  :LolLolLolLol:
here we have my assassin which runs modern twin pinch flights and spindle, the BB is profile but that doesnt make any difference, as it the same 19mm as a redline.
on the right is the twin pincher and on the left is the single, both on the same spindle, you can clearly see the modern type bolt as i didnt do it fully up for the photo  :daumenhoch:

What are they for Antony...?  ;)

I'm sure that with your dectective skills you'll be able to work it out Rich ? 8)
I always had you down as part Tim March, part Columbo and part Patrick Bateman :LolLolLolLol:
Maybe you'll have some very rare parts that I'll need and will sell them to me for a bag of magic beans ? ::)

Didn't buy any cranks cos.... early ones were bleedin' knackered- huge bits of chrome missing so didn't fancy them...older ones were lovely but just not era correct :daumenhoch:
Got the bubble font chainring though and a lovely nos cheng shin black snakebelly ....mmmm yummy  :smitten: :smitten: :smitten:

Thanks to everybody ( except Rich :2funny: )for your expertise and help and will defo use it to buy some nice 401s :4_17_5:
