I currently have a Campy centaur 115.5mm bottom bracket on my ride that is built from slightly oversized titanium tubing (Habanero) with Centaur double cranks. Would a Phil 110.5mm work on this bike? 115.5mm PW's are hard to come by.
Thanks.


Centaur double spec is 111mm, the alternate wide chainline
option was 115.5.

You might measure the chainline and check that your front
changer is able to move 2mm+ farther inside before buying
that 110. Front changer adjustment range is your likely
sticking point in that application and the most likely
reason the builder used the 115.5 spindle.

Yes, Phil can be shifted laterally but buying the right part
is so much better than fudging later since they all cost the
same.

By backing off the low limit screw and reducing the tension on the derailleur cable, I can make the chain drop off the small chain ring onto the BB, so I should have enough movement to use the shorter BB.

BTW, as I recall, I had the bike built up at your old location in Madison in the early 2000s. Has worked great but am planning to rebuild the entire bike this winter with NOS parts I've collected over the years.
Thanks.
