Default Guidance Required - Crank BCD for SS

Hi Guys,

I've had a little search of the forum and couldn't find any information which helped me so i thought i'd ask the question.

Quick Background: I'm a roadie with a plan to build a SS as a side project to run up to the shops and do some strenght training on! Plan is to use a Cannondale Capo, however I'm not sure what BCD i should use!

Do i go Standard 130mm, Compact 110mm or a track option of 144mm? Would it matter running a 1/8 or 3/32 SS chain on a 10 spd chainring?

I plan to use either a 46/48/50t on the front and any of 16/17/18/19t on the rear.

I look forward to hearing some advice form you all to guide me to a decision.

Cheers.

I use a Sugino 75 crank which is a 144 bcd. Works great, but in terms of 3/32 chainring availablilty, there isn't much out there. Salsa makes them in a 42 and 52t. I think if I was building another one I'd use a 110 or 130.
