Campy bottom bracket question

Im wanting to swap my victory cranks for nuovo record. Will my current bottom bracket work with the nuovo record cranks? Thanks

Check velobase for spindle width on the Victory BB. Record used 113mm and 115.5mm, pre and post CPSC respectively. Also Record spindles are offset something like 5mm to the DS, Victory may be symmetrical. Anyway, Velobase has all the answers you need, just do a little digging.

IIRC Victory spindles were 109mm, so I'd think your chainline will be in too far.

correct for the Victory double and Nuovo Record double uses 113 (either thick or thin cups).
taper might match but chainline probably will not.

Victory spindle is symmetrical; NR spindle is either 1mm longer on RH side (with thick cup) or 2mm longer (with thin cup)
