As most of us Coggers know, keeping the cherished old steeds running can be challenging at times. One of the most outstanding deficiencies I've noted is the lack of appropriate bottom bracket spindles out there.
I had the opportunity last night to speak with the original supplier of the spindles for Fat and he advised that he has an inventory of NOS spindles, ranging in length from 110 - 130+ mm. He is willing to supply these with a few conditions.
He has no interest in dealing with customers on an individual basis and would prefer a one time sale.
So, I am willing to do the leg work to get these out there, once.
These are 4130 JIS taper spindles, heat treated, for press in style Fat bottom brackets.
Cost will be 45 dollars plus shipping via USPS.
At the cost of the spindles, I'll not be buying a bunch to sit on the shelf, so if you think you may ever need one, now is the time to strike.
If this is something you would be interested in, post up a simple "me" on this thread. If we can get enough folks to make it worth the effort, I'm figuring at least 25, I'll start a master thread in the Classifieds, much like we did with the Yo decal repros, and we'll track orders by name and spindle length required.
cheers,
