Unfortunately they don't. They're great looking cranks though and I'm keen to use them but finding a BB is becoming a pain and I'm not too keen on paying 35 squid for one from vert-ego.

Ross, I checked Skatepool but no luck unfortunately.  :'(

Si, I have 2 options for you mate.

1) I have a sealed Tioga Bottom Bracket (same as the £35 Vert-ego one), I need it but quite happy to send it to you so you can check if it fits.

2) I am going to need one of those open bearing bottom bracket kits from ebay soon.  If you want to buy one and if it does fit that is cool, if it doesn't fit I will buy it from you.
