BB Recommendations for Stronglight 99 triple crankset
I want to replace my Campagnolo NR Triple crank with a Stronglight 99 triple crank -- 36 teeth is the smallest inner chainring on the Campy, and I want 28t for the inner chainring.
Since I have the Stronglight 99 triple crankset with the desired chainrings, which BB should I use?
Will the Campagnolo NR triple BB work (I'm guessing not). Are there any modern sealed bearing BB that would work? Or should I scour the net (and watch Ebay) for a vintage Stronglight BB?
My current BB is 68mm with English threads (1.370 x 24tpi). From other postings, it seems folks usually mount their Stronglight 99 triples on a Stronglight BB with a 122mm ISO spindle.
