Folks:

I have a couple of Campagnolo copy cranksets for which I need to select bottom brackets. Do these generally use the Campagnolo taper angle and taper length?

In addition to Galli and Ofmega cranks that I am working on currently, I'd like to equip my Zeus with a Zeus crankset at some point. It has a Campagnolo 3-arm cotterless steel (Sportsman?) crankset mounted on a Zeus bottom bracket at present. Am I correct in assuming that the Zeus cranksets use the same pattern as the Campagnolo NR/SR models?
