Can anyone advise me a lightweight bb - square taper - 68mm - 113mm.
I suppose the axle length in not essential to be 113mm.
Many thanks.

Royce , got mine last week, didn't weigh it but it was so light I thought they hadn't put it in the box.

Royce Titanium with carbon sleeve 160g, I'm still winning 🙂

Action-Tec are 134g-156g, but so a 113 will probably be in the middle.

Weightweenies say 156g + 29g for the bolts for the Tune. 😕

Ok, still lighter than WI or Royce though, they last well as well.

I'd avoid AM Classic, although they're pretty light.

Phil Wood is 145g, but that's without the mounting rings or bolts, alloy rings add 11g.
