I’ve got a Hope Bottom Bracket with a Titanium square taper axle – looking on ebay as a guide I can’t really find anything similar. It’s in excellent condition – no play in the bearings. Anybody any idea what I’m likely to get for it?

Not very much at all

retrobike would be the place to go (they still like that kinda stuff) but not much would be my guess!

A thruppenny bit, of the same age.

Teef I’d be interested depending on axle length ?

Email in profile cheers

Generally these for £30 – £40 depending on condition, axle length etc.

A similar spec Royce will go for about £60. But then there’s nothing as good as a Royce…..
So the Hope will be less than that.

FTFY 😉

They are all much of a muchness…. a couple of alloy cups, two lockrings, an axle and a sleeve. How can one be better than another? The bearings are the weakest link.

£35 I think.

Great way to save a chunk of weight on a kids bike with a typical 300+g loose ball square taper BB.
