Zaskar c'set/BB questions

[zaskar.le]

Hi i'm trying to put together my zaskar le 73mm shell with xtr M952 c'set found out that ive wrong bb 116mm.
so need to change as ive 7mm odd between ring/stay.well can get key to extract down it.
what options are there if can't find one.
I do have a campy original centaur which i could suppose take off my original stumpy comp but that i think is 68mm shell.
What other types work/fit? did hear dura ace does which is sim to xtr anyway.
Ive 2 dura ace but there 109.5mm.

rather use 952 as ive 5 bolt adaptor aswell

any thanks in advance

Hi, You should have a Spacer that goes on the BB, I'm sure Zaskars are 68mm shell..

I'd try checking the cups one by one, fit them without the opposite too see if they sit all the way into your shell.

Hi ive just measured across shell and 73mm it fits in tight anyway without spacers as if i used spacers would be loose fit?.but spindle length is 116mm which ive been told is more for DH bikes

XTR 952 requires a 112-116mm spindle, according to Sheldon:

Yep we got that far!.i already have a 116mm but too long so either need a 112.5mm or something else that be of use?

Just checked the Shimano B/B guide - it indicates a 112.5 for an M952 chainset with a 47.5 chainline (Zaskar).....116 is for a 50 chainline
