Re: Re:

hi cherrybomb
I had never heard of Royce bb until I met bulldog off here at the manc velodrome jumble.. on that day he had a very nice grisley frame with said bb in it..
roll on four weeks later I spoke to my friend matt at vekta velosport about these Royce bbs...turns out he actually knows the guy who made them... he had them in his frames when he used to race bitd...
I will get back in touch with him to find out if he still makes them or if he still has some knocking about

Royce are still going, just down the road from me!

Blimey! I won't be buying a new one at those prices. :shock:

Okay, still on the lookout for a nice British made square taper bottom bracket, 73mm shell & 110-113 axle.

Oh, and one that I won't have to see a kidney to buy would be nice.

I have just dug out one I have , it is 73mm but 117mm.

Thanks for looking, unfortunately that axle I stop long for what I need.

Cheers though.

Re: Royce, axle too long >126mm

Hiya, unfortunately the Royce BB I had in mind to offer on here, is also too long being 126mm (at least).

To help your search I have included a few images, which suggests that the size option your looking for is out there...
