Can anyone give me a definitive answer on the issue of DA 7600 taper specification?
I am literally tearing my hair out, having read everything I can find on the net about it.
The loose consensus seems to be that Hatta BB's are as good as any for 7600s and Sugino 75's. I'm under the impression that 75's are ISO, but most of what I've read says that the 7600's are JIS.
Alex from Cavendish swears that although he can't prove it, 7600's are ISO.
I have a Campag 111mm BB which will apparently give me a straight chainline, but a man in Condor said that he wouldn't run the 7600's on an ISO taper as they will eventually round, or crack.
Please help, before I take to the streets with blood-lust!
