I'm selling one White Industries Bottom Bracket. 68 X 108mm JIS square taper. Steel spindle. Made in the USA. It was installed once but never rode on. It has a few ever so slight marks from installation and some Phil Wood grease but otherwise is in excellent condition. Threads are good. I'm selling it because I was misled to believing a 108mm spindle would be fine on this frame (not a Rivendell) when 103 is actually what I needed. I purchased it for $130.00 and I'm asking $100 or best offer. Best bet for payment is Paypal right now. I'm in Seattle.

Say... I have a 105mm Phil Wood BB that's never been run, steel spindle. I was told it was a 110 when I bought it. Care to trade?

l would TOTALLY do that, Mark, if it was a 103mm. Thanks for the offer anyway.

Let me double check the length when I'm home in 3-4 hours. There is a chance it might be 103

Bummer, it's a 105mm for sure.

With the adjustment range of a Phil BB, does 2mm difference even matter?

Do they adjust? I was just reading about them with their cartridge cups and thinking about that.

They adjust left or right up to 5mm.

Right, that is true. I did that with my Phil BB when I bought it for my Atlantis. I needed a 119 but could only find an 'offset' spindle at the time, so I bought that and simply pulled the spindle back to the centre. Took maybe a minute!

Benedikt - if you're interested, send me a DM. This BB has zero miles on it. 105mm, steel JIS spindle.
