Bottom bracket spindle (where to find one these days?)
I'm looking for a bottom bracket spindle that fits an Italian width,
but is narrow (to fit the chainline on a fixed gear), however, bottom bracket spindles seem a rare beast these days, especially for Italian shell widths. If anyone has an idea, I'd appreciate it. Toby. |

TA, Campagnolo, shimano, FSA, Sugino to name just a few. MO does not decide what is available.

I did try that route (I find as I read more on this board, I have less desire to shop MO, not primarily because of impact on the LBS, but because they don't have what I want), but few shops where I live now have anything that isn't shimano sealed bottom brackets (for non campag tapers) or on the other hand, low end (read: not made for Italian width) utilitarian stuff (which I am usually satisfied with). I only wanted a spindle because I have a very nice new set of cups, but need a shorter spindle, and didn't want to waste money and materials on a new bb when I really only need the spindle (not that I mind paying a reasonable price for a spindle).
