I know the Inbred BB is 68mm, but does anyone know how the sizing translates to one of those internal square axle bearing things? I know that I could whip the knackered one out and look, but I'd rather do that once I've got the replacement actually in my hands......

Thanks!

depends on the chainset

Most modern chainsets are 110mm but there are variations.

It's a 2 minute job...

Hang on a tick. I'm sure I used a wider axle on my inbred (113mm)

Bit of digging turned up this post http://www.singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/456-chainline-question

Depends what spider you have and what chainline you are trying to get

I actually use a 115mm with an xc spider as I am running 22/36

113mm is the most common, but a couple of mm's either way can help you sort out the chainline. Middleburn recommend 113mm as standard.
