[Closed] BB cups with deep threads

My friend has totally stripped the bottom bracket on a frame and repair options aren't looking cheap. (Or at least, not cheap enough!) There's still thread deep in the BB shell - are there any BB cups around that have a deeper thread than a shimano one?

Cheers

Tom

Raceface DH cups have deeper threads - that might work?

Shimano saint ones also worth a try.

Ta. I'm guessing Raceface ones would mean new cranks... Saint ones might be worth a look.
