Message: >Hello - >I am working on refinishing a 1991 Eddy Merckx. I am looking for an italian thread, 68mm x 107mm bottom bracket. I live in the US and I am having a great deal of difficulty locating this item. Any ideas you can share? >Thanks It's been a while since I installed an italian bb, but if my recollection serves me they do not even come in 68mm width,only 70mm width. I would think almost any quality bike shop could special order you one, and you could have it within a week.
