Thank you Benz, that clarifies things.
It’s an academic question as I don’t have a bike with a 73mm shell.
I own plenty of parts to keep a few bikes on the road for the foreseeable
future.
I can’t really justify adding a new standard with plenty of good stuff on
hand.
Cheers,

On Sunday,
You shouldn't change the spindle length because the spindle length is
primarily used to determine chainline.
What you should do is to look for a BB spindle length 122mm, but with a
2.5mm offset*. Then you can use a lipless mounting ring to secure the
shorter cartridge BB in the wider BB shell.
Hiya Bill,
I appreciate the compliment on the previous build. Good to hear your wheel
tire combination work.
On this build I'm going with a more around town lighter setup.
Since I posted this on the forum I believe I've decided I'd like to run a
tire from 47 mm up to~55mm. I may start out with a
yep, I've been able to get barcons to shift 10 sprockets too. I've also
lost that little domed nut. Fell off on a dark, rainy commute home and I
couldn't find it. I replaced it with a nut from a toe clip which so far
hasn't fallen off.
Cheers,
Johnny

If I have a crank that requires a 122mm spindle with a +5mm offset on a
68mm bottom bracket shell,
Will a 127mm +5mm offset work with a 68mm cartridge bottom bracket with
something like Phil Wood mounting rings?
Is that clear?
Thank you
Ray

I owned 2 or 3 pairs of the original issue Silvers, and fixed the slipping
with blue Loctite. The bigger problem with the Silvers, in my case, was
breaking the body when the bike fell over.
I prefer the old Suntour barcons and have built up a small stash. I can
shift 10 cogs with my right on on on

Hugh, I run g ones 2.25 on my Atlantis with Atlas rims. The tire pushes the
limit but does work. The tires are solid on turns. I have an older model
Atlantis so they barely fit on the frame. I’m curious how you plan on
setting up your bike. Your previous Atlantis is one of my favorites, a true
But that's not what IRD says. The copy on the website refers to types of
shifters, not type of bar or bike. As I said they reference that the fd is
designed to index with Shimano STI brifters and possibly Campy Ergo,
systems that are dependent on the derailleur working exactly right with
those
Just a note to say that the Saluki has been sold to a very happy friend of
the OP. Thanks to the many folks who inquired about it, and apologies if I
didn't get back to all of you. Heading down to the shed now to finish the
Saluki!

Commuting in Michigan I have learned to use Grabber Toe warmers. I place
them on top of my wool socks on the top of my feet under my Chrome boots.
They last for hours, so, after a shorter ride, place them in a zip lock
bag, squeeze the air out and seal them up. They will still be working the

Assumptions based on bar type sure are foggy. Drop bars can be mounted on
almost anything and not limiting of shifters, thumbs have been mounted up
on the flats and Genevalle puts them on brake levers.
I suspect IRD's differentiation is about bottom bracket width and "drop
bar" being equated t
