Truativ Powerspline BB alternative

[d8mok]

I’m fixing a friends bike which needs a new BB.
The item is a 68 x 118 Powerspline which isn’t in stock anywhere that I can find.

Is there a alternative which is compatible? As I’ve not come across this powerspline thingy before and wasn’t sure if anyone else made one.

My local Halfords has one available, I can post it to you if you want?

 

[d8mok]

Very kind of you. Just to double check it’s a 68x118 ? As when I checked on Halfords it was only a 113 they had listed?

 

[Southville Hop]

Oops, Sorry you are correct, it is113mm not 118mm.
Must get some new glasses

Thanks anyway for trying. It’s appreciated

Resurrecting thread as I'm facing the same issue! Did you ever find an alternative or is it time to kill it completely and the replace cranks and ring? Cheers.

Kill it, but a quick search shows amazon, tredz, halfords seem to have them.

Cheers but looking for 118×73 when you open all the links they have none! Been looking for weeks and taking a punt on an imported one off ebay that never usually ends well!

Ah, the original was 68, so assumed the same shell width ;-)
