Wanted Deore XT M730 Bottom Bracket or close equivalent

[trailwright]

Hi all,

Looking for one of the old style XT bottom brackets in very good or new condition, in the following spec:

British thread, 68mm x 122.5mm axle.

It needs to be XT as I want the silver axle.

I will also be interested in similar Specialized versions, or even a fancy titanium piece at the right price. It's the dimensions and condition that are the priority though.

Yeah, like that but British thread and 68mm axle. I've seen that one, and there does seem to be a reasonable number of Italian versions, but not British.

Oops, it's an ITA bracket.
Well, I tried.

I think I should have one … here you go.
It’s a bit sticky with dry grease.
Any good?

 

[trailwright]

Thanks. Right size certainly. Does it feel smooth?

 

[MatBH5]

I should say, everything is in very good order and there are no tool marks. Cleaned up it would be really nice indeed.

 

[MatBH5]

Yes, I’d want to clean out the old grease!

Great, I'll pm you.
