Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

Finally, Velo-Orange sells a metric thread bottom bracket cartridge in a variety of widths:

Grand Cru Bottom Bracket, French Thread

Thanks all! Gonna grab the cups and also pulled the trigger on a Phil Wood 110.5mm BB on eBay too.
