"Rampred and Pinned" Triple crankset?
 

Bike shops pretty limited here. Anyone have a suggestion as to how I
can get a "ramped and pinned triple crankset (sizes to be determined) at
a reasonable price (not Campy or Ultegra)?

Thanks.

Steve:
why not just go with a 105 crank those rings are pinned and ramped also at a
lower price.
Thank you Earl

I've got a 105 from my RANS V2, I'de be willing to part with at a very
reasonable price,it's a 175mm though.

Steve,

Try Harris Cyclery.

The Sugino XD300 is a great crank for the money.

Enjoy,

All of Shimano's triple cranksets, all the way down to Sora, have
ramped and pinned chainrings.

In my experience, ramped and pinned rings are not completely
necessary. While they do make the shift faster and easier, they're
only a marginal improvement over old-style flat chainrings.

Steve,

You may not need a whole crankset unless yours is spent. I bought two
TA chainrings from Harris Cyclery for my recumbent Tandem (I can't see
the chainrings, so I can't finesse the shifter). Shifts flawlessly.
And I went 52(original)-48-26 - quite a big jump.

Ben,

So what length cranks did you end up with? I would expect that you would
find the 175-mm one a little long. [1]

[1] I have an 86-cm (34-inch) inseam and find 175-mm cranks too long for
anything but the MTB.

Tetrahedral carbon lattices are not forever.

Tom,

Been riding 175s all along. Solution to the ring issue was simple:
bike shop just replaced the big and middle rings with same-size ramped
and pinned jobs. No idea it would be so easy.
