  • @mdcc_tester wonder if you would help. frames with italian thread require bottom brackets with 70mm shell width but will it make any difference if i get a bb with 68mm shell width? plus, is it true that Shimano bottom bracket like this one has italian thread made in a slightly different way and therefore it may not always fit? could this also be true for french bb maker like Stronglight?

    There's much more to it than shell width. Italian threads are different diameter from BSC, and on the drive side even a different hand.
