• For Sale: Velo Orange Threadless Bottom Bracket - Brand New & Boxed

  in Components and clothing • 8 years, 4 months

  

  Hi All,

  Selling a Velo Orange Threadless Grand Cru Bottom Bracket - 113mm.

  It's brand new, in its original box.
  I brought it expecting to need it for an 80's Frame I have, but it turned out to take a standard BB (surprisingly...).

  Sealed bearing BB with alloycups, hollow steel square taper JIS axle.
  Fits most frames, British, French or Swiss threading. Also works on Raleigh frames with a 71mm wide BB shell. And they work on frames with damaged BB shells, even if the existing threading is totally stripped.

  I bought it for its RRP of £50, and hoping to recoup as much as possible, but appreciate it is now second hand, so looking for £45.

  Cash on collection or PayPal.

  Cheers

  Damn, thanks - looking for something for the road, but nots ballsy enough to go without brakes...!

  Hiya, guessing neither the frame nor forks are drilled for brakes...? And there's no braking surface on the wheels from the look of it...?
  Thanks!

  Hi @varno,

  New to this so bare (bear?) with me...!

  Sent you a message on the website customer service form thingummy, but not sure if it worked (seemed to take two attempts to submit, probably my bad...). Basically just trying to work out the main differences between the Mach1 rims and the DP18s...? Other than the obvious flange depth... I'm sold on the Miche hubs :)
  Things like is the DP18 aero? Are they similar weights? Which would be quickest/toughest...? Etc, usual stuff for general comparison.

  At the end of the day I'm looking for the fastest/lightest/toughest combination for commuting! (Yes I know, i want it all and for as cheap as possible too!)

  Thanks very much, thoroughly appreciate any help and advice!
