The Sprint Strada is a genuine piece of Italian cycling heritage \u2014 the kind of BB that belongs on a period-correct Italian road bike or an L&#8217;Eroica build. These don&#8217;t come up often in clean condition and the 70mm Italian shell narrows the field further. If you&#8217;re restoring an Italian frame from the 1980s, this is the real thing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Workshop Wisdom<\/strong> \u2014 Italian thread: both cups are right-hand thread \u2014 no reverse threading to fight with. Standard BB cup tool for installation. Grease cup threads before installing, torque to 35\u201350Nm. Confirm your frame shell width is 70mm before ordering \u2014 Italian shells are 70mm, English\/BSA are 68mm.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Guarantee<\/strong> \u2014 You put in the miles, we put in the work. 30-day guarantee on fit, function, and condition. \u2013 Paul<\/p>\n<p><strong>Keywords<\/strong> \u2014 Gipiemme Sprint Strada, Italian bottom bracket, 70mm shell, Italian thread, 36&#215;24 ITA, square taper, vintage Italian BB, 115mm spindle, 1980s road bike, L&#8217;Eroica, vintage Campagnolo era, Milano, made in Italy<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Will this work?
