Are most BB threads the same size? What size (tpi) are they? What is the crank arm thread size?


Thanks in advance!

And just in case you are thinking of making your own BB as I once was, and others have mentioned their intention of doing so... They can be picked up on sale for a few bucks and aren't really worth buying.
