Jerry,

Thanks, the sets of Stronglight 99's I have seem to like an ISO better than JIS, but the key word is "seem". I have the original Stronglight BB somewhere in my parts collection, since am going to use a Phil Wood BB, I thought I would take the lazy way out and ask, since I could not find the BB without tearing the joint apart.

Thanks,
