Frank, stop showing your engineering inability. Did I not talk about the Octalink BB? Is that the same diameter? And since you seem to think that mild steel and Chrome Moly have the same torsional strength why do they make drive shafts on high performance cars out of chrome moly instead of mild steal since the cost difference is 200%? They do no increase the diameters.


Hey TOM! we're taking bets on what you will change the subject to when
Frank replies to you (and shoots you down again). Care to get in on
the wager? Right now $0.10 gets you $10.00 if you guess the subject
correctly.


I wish that this thread was still about someone having a Suntour Cyclone bottom bracket spindle they would be willing to part with. ;(

Sure doesn't take long here for a thread to be hijacked. That's what it is even though Frank insists it's just topic drift.

Cheers


Here's a vintage chromed one for only twice the price of our
new black finish spindle:

Thanks again Andrew. I already have a few Shimano bottom bracket spindles I could use. However, I really do want to restore this bike to all Suntour Cyclone components which is why I bought the NOS Suntour Cyclone BB cups when I saw them at a nice low price.

Cheers


I'll look, because I still have a Cyclone crank -- but I bet the BB is long gone.

Thanks and much appreciated.

No joy. I got rid of a lot of my really old stuff, so I'm not surprised. I did find a 113mm Phil BB. Kind of rusty with somewhat rough bearings. A classic from the 70s-80s.
