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

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.

Raceface and Shimano cranks are interchangeable

Used theses in the past the threads are deeper hopefully deep enough

and Shimano compatible

Cheers – looks like all is not lost!
