Wanted: campag record bb italian cups

Posted on
  • Had a record bb come with some 9 speed double cranks.

    Unfortunately the cups are british I need Italian. .....

    Under the impression you can switch them out. But can't find them online.

    Hoping someone here might or can point me in the right direction for sourcing them

  • I understand you might need a whole new BB as the axle of the Italian version will be 2mm longer than the one you've got to make up for the wider BB shell.
    Plus italian cups are wider in diameter which means your BB unit might not be interchangeable.
    I am by no means expert so somebody can correct me if I'm wrong.

  • Italian cups are right handed thread on both sides.....plus the width is 70mm as opposed to English BBs which are 68mm.....i'd sell your English and buy an Italian threaded BB.

  • Sounds like thats gonna be the scenario.

    Cheers for the info guys.
