@youramericanlover whoa dude no need for that. I was simply suggesting that at that very point in time an email worked, so perhaps it was a period where new emails were getting answered.

Hi,
So this is the first time I've installed a Phil Wood BB and I've not found the guide that helpful with this part. I'm attempting to install a 108mm Phil Wood Bottom bracket into a 68mm bracket shell. Both BB and shell are British threaded.
The problem I have is that once the BB is in the shell, the cups will not screw all the way in, leaving perhaps 4/5mm either side. I know that they are the correct threading as, without the BB in the shell, both cups wind in to an entirely flush position. Ive noticed that the bearings have a shoulder and the cups themselves have half of the inner circumference without teeth. This obviously lead me to the conclusion that the cup mounts on to the shoulder, but having tried to push this on by hand they do not seem to fit. Perhaps they need more force, but wanted to check first before I mangle the bearings.
There is obviously something I'm missing so could somebody please enlighten me.
Cheers.

@rrmmnn no I didn't get a shipped confirmation. Just that the order was confirmed.

Need One today. ANY will do. English threaded, JIS taper, 110mm axle length. For a 68mm BB shell.
Or just a set of Miche Primato English threaded cups.
Preferably a cheap/free old one that I can bung in for a couple of days till I can sort out another.
In Brixton but can travel. Cheers
