Bottom Bracket - 73mm/118-120mm - FOUND

[yagamuffin]

I am looking for a bottom bracket for a '96 GT RTS.

The shell has a 73mm diameter. The spindle needs to be at least 118mm and no more than 120mm.

Willing to pay up to £15 including delivery.

Thank you

make do

I've just made one from a 68mm by leaving out the middle and spacing the bearings. I then used lock tight on the left cup. This works a treat using VP bottom brackets from Halfords £12

Umm... thanks. Sounds far too complicated for me!

I have a brand new UN54 that's either 116 or 118... :shock:

Back in a mo...

I guess it was 116?

...and then my connection died... :roll:

Good news though, it's a 73x118!

Still in it's box, and the threads are already greased from the inevitable 'in, too long, out & back in the box' debacle :roll:

I paid £17 for it, but I'm sure they'll be cheaper than that on CRC, so a couple of quid less than what they're asking would seem fair?
