I'm talking the BB not the spider or chainring or crank - the bottom bracket itself
Is there such a thing as a Sugino BB? I've never seen one
-
Yep there is

Do you know much about them? what difference there is between them and a Tange BB etc..
What did they come on as spec - I need to get one and can't bloody find one anywhere
-
as the wax says, like the ones below for normal 3 piece cranks and the bottom pic for the redline 400 series

Sorry dudes forgot to mention 1 pc cranks BB
-
ahhhh
then not sure
I know they did one for the redline and 3 piece not sure on 1 piece , they must of , grey box red writing springs to mind
maybe branded as tioga , as i think Sugino and tioga were brands from the same company

Check this spec list - do you think it's accurate? Araya yx's not 7x's - look at the bottom bracket heading

Maybe they refer to the spider and bolts, although its quite possible they did a one piece crank BB they made BBs and lots of one piece cranks , so why they wouldnt do a full house?
Although the same group of companys were interlaced with each other not sure but Tioga , Tange , sugino were all part of the japanese cycle co , so maybe tange did the one piece , and sugino didnt bother
Its hard to find out unless you speak japanese , i did try to get some history but was stuck after i got a pidgeon english email from them
well it does say seat pole , so maybe it came with a flag
