Sorry for repeats I am crossposting on the Mech, MB & BMX

I have a Titanium Bottom Bracket manufactured by Cook Bros. They no longer make these.
The retaining Collar, the ring with the set screw, is cracked at the set screw and no longer retains the shaft.

By chance does anyone know where this part can be found?
The ID is special at 15.875 mm but I can bore it if necessary
Otherwise I'll just put in a new BB

Thanks

Maybe a roadie shop? There must be another company that makes bearings and cups to fit that spindle; the Euro on BMX frames is English-threaded, if I remember correctly, but don't quote me on that.

Check with Sheldon Brown. If he doesn't have it, he'll let you know where to find it, if it's available.

Do the bearing shops carry retaining collars?

I need a box of grid squares, a bucket of rotor wash, 300 feet of flight line, a skyhook, and the keys to the drop zone.

Do you think you can get those for me Mr. Racer?

Maybe you should go drink a quart of antifreeze and come back in the morning.

Pity for the cripple?

Being crippled sucks. I go back to the doctor this tuesday and he's probably gonna tell me I have another two months to go... or it could even be worse because I was doing 180's on my crutches a month ago (like two days after I last went to the doctor), and I landed really hard on my leg, so I could have messed it up even more. It sucks not being able to ride and I have so much longer to go. On a positive note, I can walk through whole hallways, going forwards or backwards, without using my other leg (in other words, just using my arms). It looks pretty sick.
