I just found out that Suntour Superbe Pro Cranksets have a special taper that more closely matches the taper of a Campy like bb. I don't currently own a Sutherlands, nor have I ever used one. Is it proper to mount a Suntour Superbe crankset on a Suntour Cyclone bb? Is it true that the taper on a Superbe crankset is 1.8 degrees vs. the industry standard of 2.0 degrees? Is this a big difference for a NOS crankset, if it is true? I feel this kind of stuff is the hardest part of restoring old bikes, because the cranset was hard enough to locate, and now I might have to find a Superbe bottom bracket to match. Help!
