Cheers Mark, will give you a shout

The spindle is 125mm

The Bottom Bracket measures 65mm

Anyone any ideas what might fit this?

I would say that the BB you have in there aint for single speed but for a triple, that spindle width would put the chainline out by a mile, as for the shell width 68mm should be fine.  Have you tried some cranks on there to see how it shapes up?

I have some nice 165 cranks for it and they seem to line up fine, although now that you've said that I'm going to double check.

I had a chat with SBD a little while ago about masking it for spray - So I'm thinking I might risk it in the oven with the BB attached

As It works well I'm not sure I really want to thinker about with it too much.....  ???

Wet paint it no need for the oven then  :daumenhoch:
