@danb @Howard @Dammit I have two axles, I just want to test fit the cranks to see what axle length I can get away with. The bearings in the BB are the ones I'm using with my DA cranks. I don't want to ruin them if I don't have to.
What I might do is remove the bearings and just float the axle through the BB shell to see if that gives me an idea of width. It looks like the cranks will end up a bit skinnier once tightened though so it might not be a fair test.
