Hi Chuck,
I always thought that too but... Sutherland's 5th Edition lists 121mm wide Stronglight spindles for Peugeot doubles and 126mm wide to triples!
I've seen several other references to Peugeots using 120mm wide BB spindle too, but why?
2mm is not going to make that much difference!
I have a 1983 Peugeot PSV-10 and sure enough, it has a 120mm wide Stronglight BB!
Is it wrong, or just French!
