Correct spindle width for Stronglight 99 triple?
I have a '70 PX10 and I'm going to replace the original Stronglight 93 double crankset with a Stronglight 99 triple. I haven't had the bottom bracket apart in a long time but I'm pretty sure the original spindle is a 118 (mm in width). Can anyone tell me what width I'll need for the triple?
In a thread from about a week ago Sierra said that a 123 or 125 was the spindle to look for. Can anyone confirm this?
Thanks,
Greg

Suggestion-if someone has a Sutherland's repair manual it should have the info that you need.
