[Hoon]

Could somebody please confirm the bottom bracket size for an Orange Aluminium O???

Frame no is...A91020025.

Thanks

68mm shell for all Alu-O's

Axle length doesn't care much for the frame it's on, but for what crank/chainset it's attached to.

It's the original XT Chainset (M730), I thought I originally had a 68x125 on the bike but I bined it a while back and am only just getting round to getting the bike rolling again

According to SheldonBrown

you need a 122.5 axle for an M730

What colour is your O?

Excellent, I'll track one down on t'internet.

It's orange/white. Had it from new and it's still an awesome ride 20 years on. It could do with a respray as the paint it blistered/flakey in a few areas notably round the bottom bracket, but for now I'm going to get it running smoothly and enjoy it.

Thanks for the info!!!
