yeah it was pretty far in , some grind marks on the frame from when the crank would flex under heavy load. Not something you would expect with a 123mm spindle. For goodness sakes, the longest one I saw available to buy is 127mm

We'll see, I've ordered the SRAM S600, so even if it's off at least it will match the bike . Like the OP, I'm hoping to get lucky and everything falls into place, worth a try for 48 bucks. I have read that BB fitting is more of a " try it and see" than an exact science, and I've always had plenty of luck on my road bikes, but the Mt. triples are a different story.
