Hi gents and ladies,
I'm after a broken/cheap crankset that would feature a bb30 axle that I can use for my SuperSix project to allow me to run minimum to no spacers. Has to fit 68mm BB shell, and compatible with RED22 cranks.
I got 1x Stages spindle and 1x SRAM pf30 spindle for trades if that's what you after. You can see pics and dimensions of both in my build thread.
Thanks!

Okay gents, I'm stuck here.
I got the origin axle out only to find out that the one from stages does not fit.
Reason being - the splines on both ends are offset, not inline. Dammit.So...I need a bb30 axle to fit my red22 etap crankset and to work with 68mm wide BB.
I've got now two axles to trade for, I'm attaching photos with dimensions and what I mean with offset splines.
The radial marks on the black axle are superficial and you can barely feel them with your nail.Please help. I don't want to run the wide axle and 300 spacers.

Who hasn't told me I need PF30 cups?! Stuck @ not having the correct BB basically, ordered them fancy NTN LLB bearings, yet the only place those fit is my spare part shelf, lol.
Anyhow, onto sorting out the BB, and also require a new RD hanger as it looks one thread is stripped.Serviced the headset bearings with fancy red grease, yet appears the damage is already done, so those need replaced too... Oh, cycling....
On to the the BB subject. Some googling tells me my options are:
- SRAM PF30 BB, around 30Eur, yet reviews say can go kaputt quite quick?
- found some Cannondale PF30 to BB30 (use my own bearings) adapter, yet not in my width (68 mm frame)
- loads of fancy 200+ eur options, which I can't justify.
Thoughts?

I'm not too sure I done the right thing but I bought this Stages type A bb30 axle. If I interpreted the information correctly, this should replace the current axle on my Red22 cranks and make it "normal" bb30 length rather than the one I have now, thus eliminating the need for finding(more complex task imo) and installing the unnecessary spacers.
Also been watching too many Hambini videos I guess, so ordered 2x NTN LLB 6806 bearings. Apparently they soooooooooooooooo smoooth...
Right the project has been on the pause for a while, but wife saying "why you need this when you no ride this??" plus some time off means I resorted to proper searching and found what I need to install them bb30/pf30 cranks into 68mm BB shell.
Apparently came as a kit number 11.6418.000.000. I've placed an order, hopefully that comes though from EU, otherwise would have to order from overseas.
Looks like dis and includes 13mm spacer for DS, and 4.84 + preload for NDS.
