So re-tapping the shell might be a good thing - check with the LBS you trust most. And then check back in here!
just a thought ... Suntour Superbe Pro have a taper like ISO not JIS like Shim, I run the Miche on mine works mint, It came orig. used on a frame with a Shim BB. John at Business confirmed this, thats how I ended up with my Miche in the first place, may a case of two stones with one bird for you?
