Just a quick one
« on: November 01, 2007, 07:26:05 AM »
Not really technical, but could someone please tell me where to get some bb spacers (the ones that allow 73mm to be converted to 68mm) I've looked on CRC but cant see any, and I think my lbs wont know what im talking about. Just a link would be good, or if you've got any for sale....

Thanks

doing that will give an uneven surface unless you have a lathe and everything to perfect it.

I've got some spare spacers from my saint cranks I think.  I'll have a look for them since i'm home for the weekend.

Shut up. Don't care if you're serious or not, you're contributing nothing to this thread.

Dunno how lucky you'll be, if they're anything like the pedal washers they could be like rocking horse poo, that said any decent bike shop should be able to tell you straight away, phone around if you have to...
