Spindle Length = 113,118 mm

Which bottom bracket do I use? I'm looking at the Shimano UN54 bottom bracket. Should I get the 113 or the 118 spindle? I am wanting to use this for a 9 speed. Any help anyone can give is greatly appreciated!

My guess would be 113mm for that bike (130mm rear dropout spacing), the 118mm would be for bikes with mountain bike rear axle spacing of 135mm.
