Got nothing useful about millimeters of bottom bracket axle / spindle .
But ,
I'll bet a significant percentage of Teledyne Titans were first built up with Phil bottom brackets . Just as a guess .
And I suppose the ULTIMATE Teledyne Titan would be the Teledyne frame , the Teledyne front fork , and the rare Teledyne bottom bracket axle / spindle . So , would you go with Campagnolo Super Record cups on that one ?
Quick ! Where's a "Cool Gear" saddle on a Weyless seat-post to go with ?
