Just had a call from Seabass (who are building this up for me) and there is a problem with the axle length on the Rotor cranks - basically it's too short for this threaded BB set-up. The mechanic reckons it might be cos it's for press-fit BBs.
I knew about axle diameters and I researched BB options pretty thoroughly but I had no idea about different axle lengths... so, if I'm now shopping for a new axle, does anyone know what length I'm searching for? Obvs, this is a standard 68mm BB shell.
EDIT: Turns out it's the spider that's wrong... made for some kind of proprietary Cervelo design. I think I have to switch spiders... so no bike intil that's done; the saga continues.
