The bike I want the Suntour Cyclone spindle is one I'm building up

Our 1986 Cannondale touring bikes came with SunTour Superbe sealed bottom
brackets. Mine lasted about 25 years. My wife's has less mileage, and
is still
fine.

But I understand your desire to duplicate the original.

I'm happy that you are happy.

I never took mine apart to see what happened. I just replaced it with a
Shimano unit.

Maybe my wife's is still going because she rides in rain even less than
I do.
