Hmm, 4 7/8" is about 124mm or so... I'll measure up the axle I've got tonight.
Could you measure the width of the BB shell? If it's 68mm then it should fit - but some older Raleighs (and I can't remember which, or when) used wider BB shells and had the bearings spaced further apart. Are both cups missing or just the left-hand one?
I also found a pair of cotter pins last night - I'll throw them in, but I don't know if they're Imperial (9.5mm diameter) or continental (9mm).
