Just purchased a steel 90 Nishiki Ariel frame in great condition. I have been plowing through the archives and internet with no luck so far. Anyone have the specs for the original BB spindle width for this frame?

Thanks

BB Spindle width will be dictated by what chainset you use.

If you are using something standard, like Shimano, then a quick look on Sheldon Brown's web site should give the the width you need for your chainset.

If, as I did recently, you use something like Middleburn that Sheldon does not list, then you will have to work out the chainline.... which is also explained on Sheldon's site ;)
