I need to replace the bottom bracket on one of my bikes, and based on
the recent thread regarding Phil Wood BB's, I'll go with them.
But I don't know which size to get.
The specfics are:
bike: Raleigh Touring 18
bb shell width: 68mm
crank SR / Suntour XCE, 175mm
old spindle: 3S
According to the Harris site [1] 3S spindles have the following
measurements:
overall length: 121.5
left end length: 32
right end length: 37.5
middle length: 52
but according to Bikepartsusa.com [2] the measurements are:
overall length: 124.5
left end length: 35
right end length: 37.5
middle length: 52
According to my onw measurements, Bikepartsusa.com is more accurate.
So which size Phil Wood BB should I get?
Thanks!
