Bionic Balls Posted September 28, 2005 Report Share Posted September 28, 2005 can you explain here too.....? crank clearance? long axle though... adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamR28 Posted September 28, 2005 Report Share Posted September 28, 2005 5mm spacers = 5mm less thread in the frame = dodgy. Its not a problem with the E-Type BBs since the threads are moved inboard 2.5-3mm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobnobs Posted September 28, 2005 Report Share Posted September 28, 2005 Will that be a problem on the isis bb i got from you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamR28 Posted September 28, 2005 Report Share Posted September 28, 2005 One spacer = 2.5mm = what FSA themselves recommend = no problem :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobnobs Posted September 28, 2005 Report Share Posted September 28, 2005 Ah cool, thought it might have been a 5mm spacer. Should have measured it, Doh. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
