should fit just fine!  the Reflex frame (in fact i'd say 99%) old school bikes have a US BB shell so it should go in fine  :daumenhoch:

just need to watch out for the length of some arms on some frames as they can run very close to the chainstays - but spacers can sort this worth a watch though.

Good point Mr Fruit, I assumed that the double pinchers ran similar specs but maybe not then!

Look at where the pedal screws into the crank arm, see those two bolts on Gasheads Curtis, they are twin pinch.  Frostys only has one bolt so is single pinch.  Twin pinch are new; single (and pinchless) are older (and thus more expensive).

With pedal fitting, as long as your pedals are 9/16 thread (for 3 piece cranks) and not 1/2 thread (1 piece) then you are ok.

I fitted some twin pinch to my T/A (travesty... :) ) and they went on a treat, look fabulous darling, and dont cost the earth.

The cranks will fit just fine.  Space as required to clear the frame.  You need pedals with 9/16" axles, your current one piece crank pedals have 1/2" axles....

All conventional 1" threaded headset forks will fit your frame  :)
