BB length for Dura Ace 7400 cranks, 8 speed
Wondering if anyone is running 8sp brifters with Dura Ace 7400 cranks. So, here's my experience:
Sheldon Brown says it should be 113mm with +3mm offset (3mm longer) on the drive side. I ordered a Phil Wood bracket to this spec. I could not get it to work with 7400 cranks, 8 speed. So, I just decided to go with Shim 600 tricolor cranks, 113mm symmetrical. Phil was kind enough to move the bearings over for me, no charge!
My sister's bike, 7sp friction shifters, has DA 7400 cranks with a Phil 112mm bracket, some offset on the drive side. Works beautifully.
Just wondering if someone out there has some insight, experience running 7400 with 8sp. What size bracket are you using? thanks
