Hi,

Per the title, am looking to find out the spindle length for the cartridge BB bearing for a Cannondale 700 Adventure ca. 2001.

It's a Shimano cartridge BB (LP-27 as supplied. but will go for UN-55 on replacing), 68mm English thread, square taper, but without removing it I cannot be sure of the spindle length. Think it's 110mm, but not sure.

Anyone know, so I can order before dismantling?

Thanks!

    find out what the cranks are as that will determine the axle length.

  • They're 'Cannondale' although they are stamped 'Japan' on the back of each...

    Not sure how this helps me...?

    look on the ´dale tech pages?

    or wait till you get the cranks on.

    sorry but there are that many lengths out there.
