Crank Set for a beach cruiser build...need input.

[Mach6]

I'm attempting of doing a 'slow & low' low-rider build with a frame I was gifted from the Dumster gods. Its a hyper frame; and Im needing to get shorter cranks ( about 152 to 160mm) in order to make it work.Do they even make this size for a beach cruiser?, Would a mountain bike crankset fit a hyper? or, what would I need to measure to figure it out.?

Also want to thank all who helped me with my exhaust issue. What a difference it made.....You guys rock!

Can you get us a pic of your current bottom bracket & crank combo. I might have a option for you. Thanks

Thanks. Let me do some looking & measuring on my crank arms they are short. I'll get back here in a bit.

I've never tried it, but you might be able to use a kids bike crank.

Ok a CDH Power wide crank set has 165mm long crank arms.
The BIKEBERRY wide crank set has 155mm long crank arms.
Here is a set of UNICYCLE crank arms in 125mm & 150mm long crank arms.

The only problem with that is I don't see a sprocket. But I'm sure someone could make it work.

He never asked about a sprocket. Plus the bikeberry kit & the CDH power kit comes with everything. Alls I did was get him the crank arm lengths.

He might have to buy multiple kits to get his crank width & another kit for crank arm length. He might need 2 kits to make 1.
