Oops. Guess I haven't successfully migrated to the metric system. A 17.5 mm BB would be a short one indeed.
Probably better go back and get the 15.5 CM BB. Thanks FBinNY and ThermionicScott for the helpful responses.
EDIT: Man, I need to get my head right. Dimensions were actually 116.4 and 117.8 mm, so 1.4 mm difference looks OK.
