Your current crank will probably have a square taper bottom bracket so search ebay for vintage crankset or vintage chainset (they will all use the square taper bottom bracket you have) and then find one you like the look of and can afford, my crank is powdercoated red not anodised so if you want red spray (or powdercoat) it

Like these for example...

That is a great find and fantastic price!well done  8) is there much of an an old school scene in Italy? any forums etc?.
Your English is really good as most us Brits struggle with one language,little tip though if you ever visit the U.K dont go into a Bike shop asking for a new knob as yours is broken.

Kaba:
Stidds you have a image for the decals? i need a image for prepare the decal because in internet are all inclined!

New GRIPS (no knobs!!) <.<



Stidds, Now I ask my friend if he has a crank of a old race bike... i hate search on another state because shipping cost too much (for pedals and frame/handlebar pad 20 $!!!)

I made the decals myself, so no scans I can take some pictures if you want me to.



As for cranks, off of an old race bike should fit.  That is what we all used bitd.
