  1. I have a quattro assi cross frame that was built as a proto. it was
    designed for mtb cranks.

    But I run a road crank, with a 44t single chainring setup (44t on the
    inner, guard on the outer, seatpost mounted guide for the inside).

    All was good wehn I had a DA (square taper) crank on it, using a phil bb
    119mm TI bb with +4mm drive side.

    This year, I can't stand to not have the data, and want to run my SRM
    Pro on the cross bike. It uses an octalink shimano bb.

    Noticing that the ultagra bb is a 110 or 118, is the 118's additional
    length symetric? or is it mostly on the drive side (I hope)?

    thanks,

    g

    It's symmetric. Probably the best option for your application would be
    a 112.5 XTR BB.
