Bottom Brackets Comparable to Mavic 610?
Im a huge fan of the Mavic 610 (sealed bearing, super smooth etc), but this time around want to avoid chamfering the bb shell.
Which bottom bracket would you guys suggest? I was looking into Omas and such, but just Im sure members here are much more familiar with models that Im unaware of. Thank you. |
Mavic did issue an earlier, conventional BB, I think, with their 1000 group.
Problem is, they are hard to find, and so far the only ones (for some reason, usually beat to hell) I did find are either French and Italian threaded. Haven't come across one with BSC threading.... you could just look for a Stronglight BB, if you want something French, with sealed bearings. I think the one the issued with their Delta group had sealed bearings and had lock rings on both cups, so you get a little bit of chain line adjustability. |
Phil Wood. Really top notch and adjustable chain line. Other than that, good ol' Shimano UN series BB are excellent.

Im not looking specifically for french threaded bb.. I just love the Mavic 610's performance, (which I have on 2 of my bikes both english threaded I believe, not that it matters since its chamferred) and wanted to find something comparable in performance.

What type of crank will be used, ISO or JIS?
|
ISO. Wish I could use 10speed cranks but unfortunately not compatible, so ISO
