only bb's in that size are the heavy-er duty, 4 bearing types. FSA, Truvativ, RaceFace?
I've thought of lightening up my V10 that way but found nothing in the distributer catalogs.
The new Yeti 303 takes that setup and the team is running outboard bearing setups like the new Race Face, Saint, XT. However Profiles with a Ti spindle will also work.
I was just tinking ISIS stuff, forgot about external bb setups and profiles. I wonder how hard it would be to space an external out that far when you include the chainguide? Maybe not hard at all. Ramble Ramble

all is well hommie, i know this. I was just responding to his post and thinking out loud. I'm sure dougie has no problem, I have no problem and pretty sure the original poster has no problem. Order has been restored and we can go on being like fonzie.

Profo...who makes an outboard bearing BB that wide? (128). Last I checked Race Face and Shimano didn't go that wide! The crank spindle would also have to be longer.
Dorky hard 2h+ xc ride then work. I need to get over there and get rid of my mtnx demons, but I'm liking making myself hurt climbing recently. I need more time off.
Acadian's question was the same one I was thinking of, just stated better.
I don't know for sure, but I did see a Race Face Diab. on a Yeti 303. So I would ASSUME it is that wide enough (128 spindle). However I figured the Shimano's would that wide as well (outboard style), so I shouldn't say for sure about them. But the Race Face should be since it's on the 303. BTW the 303 requires a 83 mm shell.

Yes. I know Shimano has shipped some 805 cranks, but not sure on the Race Face-information is sketchy and I haven't seen any at the distributors. They both give a 55-57mm chainline-equivalent to a 128mm ISIS bb.
Several distributors don't stock the 83/128 from any company because still so few companies used them at their bikes. I had to go directly to Truvative to get mine. FSA will not have any in stock for the next two months. The only company I was told that stock them is Race Face but I did not call them to find out if they were in stock.
