Definitely from county Bullshire. They make horseshoes and hand grenades in a factory down the road from the Campy factory.

Some day someone will explain to me the mish-mash of metric/fractional on bikes and how that came to be. 9/16” spindles thread into 170mm arms that ride on 1/4” bearings in a 68mm wide bottom bracket. Pick a unit of measurements and go with it!!
