I have been trying to fit my old campag record chainset back to the bike it was once on. Unfortunately I can't find the original bottom bracket set for it. So I bought a campag record (only available in 102) and it is too short. The frame is a Condor Italia, purpose built about 15 years ago with English thread. Any advice from anyone here please? Can I get a 106 or 7 set somewhere? I am based in Thailand but can purchase from anywhere!!!! Many thanks

Bottom not bootom! A slip of the fingers!

What you need is a Campagnolo Centaur BB in 111mm length. Completely compatible with your older Record crankset.

Miche also do 107 mm but if you really want to hit the quality scale you can go with Sugino BB75 superlap - even better than Campag Record.

Centaur is 111 or 115mm for triple(larger seat tube diameter). Campagnolo never made a 108mm. Either 111 after 1984, 102 after 1995 for Record. Centaur was always 111 or 115, road stuff. MTB Centaur was different.
