• I know for sure, that little ring does not keep the spindle in place.

    Yeah, never meant that, meant as a stop for the cranks. I've seen plenty of shitty seals come off like you mentioned and it's not one of those, the picture way back didn't look like one either.
    Could also be to stop the chain getting stuck but the one I had up there is a 113mm and I don't think there would be room for that anyway.

  • oh okay, yes, a v weird component.
    Ill keep an eye out for some steel ringed bbs, i wanna check one out for sure.

    imagine the complicated convo about all the weird spacers and seals on external bbs hahaha
