A fresh cartridge bottom bracket can put a worn daily rider back into service. This steel-cup Tange is an affordable replacement for a compatible 68 mm English-threaded frame and JIS square-taper crankset.
Choose the spindle length to match your crank and chainline. Steel cups favour straightforward repair value over low weight.

Fit comes first
Confirm 68 mm shell width, English threading and JIS taper before ordering. This is not a 73 mm, French-threaded, Italian-threaded or ISO-taper replacement. Match spindle length to the crank manufacturer’s requirement and check chainline, chainring and crank-arm clearance. Body height or frame size does not determine spindle length. Not sure?
