Chance is that this bike is not a 1951 make.
Do you have a corresponding frame No.?

An old thread, I reckon... and you may have already found what the problem was. Notwithstanding that, your problem is that your BB has the 51.3mm centre sleeve designed for 68/73mm BB shells, which means that in a 73mm shell, the retaining rings (cups) go flush with the edges of the BB shell, but in a 68mm shell, a portion of the cups protrude, by design.

If you want your cups go flush with the edges of the (68mm) shell, you need to replace the centre sleeve with a narrow, 46.3mm one, you can in email-order it from Phil , for about 15 quid.

Phil BB-s with 105mm spindles or shorter come with the narrow centre sleeve, by default.

PM sent.

You still got it, or it is gone, already?

Could anyone please, give me some hints on from where to source replacement axle for a Lambert (Viscount) rear hub with cartridge bearings? (Later I can give axle dimensions, too if needed.)
Any info on compatible hubs would be of interest, as well!

I also had the idea of having the axle re-manufactured by the local turner from titanium, if I had the idea of the exact material grade and I knew a source from where the raw titanium rod could be acquired.

Hi,
Do you still have the rims for sale?
If so, you would you consider posting them to Hungary?

I know this is bumping a very old thread, just inquire whether you ever sold those crankarms?
