It seems like everyone has a different opinion about Phil Wood spindle length/taper with Sugino 75 cranks.

Some say 109mm JIS. Others say ISO.

I e-mailed Phil Wood and they replied with:

"You'll need the 110.5 ISO taper BB."

Does anyone know for certain which BB is correct?

It would be especially helpful if someone who actually has this setup could weigh in.

Thanks in advance.

Looks like PW gave the correct spindle. Why don't you just use that?

It goes well beyond just the JIS question in the title. Check out the comments made by user "just a negro." Kid knows his shit.

He probably doesn't want open ball bearings. Neither would I.
