Re:

If it's octalink its 68 x 113 you want.

Or buy a new crank/bb depending if you need new rings.

I stand corrected!

If it was or still is original, then the 110x68 would be the one (even though you link to a 1997, it used XT M739 in 199

But

Its currently fitted with a deore octalink item i think.

is the bit I went on.


Basically just read of the code on the back of the crank arm and you can look up most details.
