I installed one in an english threaded bottom bracket this spring. It's on #3502 in my sig below. The crankset is a Miche Primato. I used never-sieze on the threads and loctite 248 inside the cups where they contact the bb cartridge. No slippage yet. As has been noted in other threads on this and other forums, the 107 Miche BB does not give you a 42mm chainline unless you adjust it over to the left a few mm. When this one is ready to be replaced, I will probably use a 102 Campy.
