Spec is to torque each cup on each side. No sequencing. Comports with physics. Cups are independent and separated by solid body aka threaded BB shell.
Maybe you could elaborate about the 'flat you speak of' What flat? Maybe we aren't talking about the same thing. Have a picture? Care to describe in greater detail what parts you are assembling? I have built a ton of Campy bikes.
Torque each side to 35 Nm as shown in Campy's technical procedure:
No, we obviously aren't talking about the same thing. It depends entirely what one considers "traditional" Yours is more recent than mine. I was considering the square drive and cartridge bearings. What works, works.
