What Bottom Bracket to use for Shimano FC-7600 Crankset
Hi All,
I just purchased a set of the Shimano Dura-ace FC-7600 Crankset and need to know What bottom brackets I can use with this.
Are the Shimano's standard taper? I know the size and width just not which companies will fit this crankset.
Thanks!

the newer shimano 7710's use octalink. 7600 is the standard square taper, and you should be able to find some older shimano bb's with this axle.

Use a Shimano 107 and you'll be spinning like William Karsten

if you can, you should try to pick up the old Shimano 7610 109mm bottom bracket. It is NJS approved (the english threaded version) and the one that is designed for it. That said, you can also go well by getting the Sugino 75 bottom bracket (also NJS). If you don't care about NJS, the 107mm UN-53/73 work well and are cheap deluxe.
