cross post from my project thread
Bottom bracket arrived however I have a small problem,
As you can see the left plastic cup sticks out about 15mm, the crank arms still go on and spin fine and it doesnt get in the way but obviously this isn't right i don't think
After googling around i think its because the plastic cup i've been supplied with (bought 2nd hand) is actually for a 73mm shimano cartridge BB not a 68 like mine... does this sound right, will it cause problems?
It fits snug but its sticking out a fair wad
