All:
The VO threadless BB fits French, Swiss, and BSA threaded BB's. It does not work in Italian thread BB shells, as the inside diameter is larger than the other sizes. A bit of aluminum shim material can fix that though.
Incidentally, we do stock a French thread bottom bracket made to our spec- sealed bearings shielded bearings, hollow axle, traditional crank bolts, etc. It's nice. It sells for ~$50. There are spindle lengths from 103 to 122mm. As long as the threads aren;t boogered up, I'd recommend the French BB over the threadless version.
