It's an ISIS spindle. Turns out it may be too short a spindle. The drive side crank-arm seems to have acceptable clearance (barely), but the off-drive crank-arm touches the chain-stay. The BB was installed by a reputable local Bike Shop, so I'm confident it was installed correctly. Has anyone heard about this? Can I just order a 113mm spindle length from some other manufacturer? Thanks!

I doubt anyone else here has that specific crank/bb,so you probably need to try other bb's to see what works. Hope this helps,dan -------------------- no signature Post Extras: Karl new member Reged: 09/11/05 Posts: 2 Loc: Bay Area, Califiornia Re: Bottom Bracket spindle length on Calfee Tetra Pro [Re: dfcas] #6573 - 09/12/05 06:25 PM (137.5.10.140) Edit Reply Quote Thank-you, sir! I'm thinking I'll be going the 113mm route. Those crank-arms on the Pulsion Cranks are very straight (unlike most which seem to have some offset). K Post Extras: Pages: 1
