• Hi, guys, do you think it is a good idea to drill couple small drain holes in the center of bb shell?

  • I just bought a hand down crankset, the "cinelli mystic" 165(?).
    I'm looking to install it on my mash bolt 2011 green but I can't find any info on which bottom bracket lenght to use to get a good chain line. Can you help me with this?
    I have a halo/cinelli rear hub it that helps?

    maybe I've got the name all wrong.

  • I tired to search but unable to find any info.

    Which english BB i need for Suntour Cyclone cranks to get 42mm chain line ?

  • What octalink BB does one need to get a 44mm chain line with DA 7710s?

  • Just won these scabby cranks on eBay, can anyone tell me which type of bb I need and in what length for a standard track chai line?

  • Looks like an octalink?

  • Any definitive answer? Want to order one today

  • Anyone?

  • ISIS afaik

  • Yeah it is but I'm unsure which length

  • Anyone know what cog's I can put on a Gipiemme Special Pista hub? Normal? Same as Campag? Been ages since I've done this....

  • Pretty sure all cogs have the same thread - you just need to get the correct thread pitch on the lockring

  • Just won these scabby cranks on eBay, can anyone tell me which type of bb I need and in what length for a standard track chai line?

    if you took a picture of the other side and the bb / crank interface it might be easier to tell

  • Pretty sure all cogs have the same thread - you just need to get the correct thread pitch on the lockring

    Cheers dude... think I had a surley on my Campag Record ones at one point, maybe even still, and I doubt they are a special thread...

  • new chain and cassette fitted and gears setup by bike shop but when I stand up out of the saddle in the little ring, the chain is 'slipping' when I push down with force

    this is both annoying and potentially dangerous (have already bruised my knee, banging it into the bars when the chain slipped on a steep hill)

    how do I stop this happening? do the chain and cassette wear into each other? adjust the b-screw?

  • @mark1mark, probably too late but I run a 109.5mm ultegra octalink BB with 7710s and a Goldtec track hub which is a 45mm chainline - it's spot on with a 3/32 chain and White Industries freewheel.

  • Omniums with BB spacer a really bad idea?

  • Does anyone have a Phil Wood bb tool I can borrow this weekend by any chance?

  • Omniums with BB spacer a really bad idea?

    Yes. Terrible idea. Shot a BB trying that and nearly ruined the threads on the frame. You can only use spacers on an MTB frame.

  • Have had a single 1mm spacer on the driveside for a couple of days, guess it's time to remove it.

  • I'm looking for a 109mm ISO taper, Italian threaded BB. Seem to be impossible to find.

  • Campa Record Pista chainset on a JIS 107mm UN54?

  • Phil wood with ITA cups?

  • Both valid replies but can't afford Phil on this build, And I already have the chainset (Sugino 75) haven't had experience with the whole using a JIS taper and under shooting by 2mm. Does this genuinely work?

  • ^Sugino 75 and Campa Veloce BB works as the Transmission database states.
