  1. A friend wants to know if an Athena (NOS) crank goes directly on his Super
    Record bottom bracket spindle. Neither of us can find a reference for
    width.

    Thanks in advance for answers.

    The spindle is not symmetrical and longer(114mm), like the 111mm
    spindle that the Athena is designed for, so the right side will be
    farther out affecting chainline and front der action.

    Is there a simple spindle replacement possible ?

    Thanks again ...

    If it's a real Super record bottom bracket it isn't compatable with
    other Campy BBs. To start, different ball size.

  5. Agree, but if the OP can figure out chainline and front der action, a
    Super/Nuevo Record bb *should* fit an Athena/Daytona/Centaur crank,
    i.e., same taper....

    Actually, this cheap friend has now been convinced to buy a cheap Veloce BB.
    Thanks to all for the guidance.

    Would it work to flip the spindle around left to right?

    If you find a 111mm spindle, like from Record, Chorus, CDA or Athena,
    with the same center section dimensions as the SR..but the simplest
    solution is use a Campagnolo AC-H(alloy cups, hollow spindle) in
    111mm...about $25.
