while i was also at the carboot today i bought this

BB - has Cr-Mo CV-170 84 -C ? Is that a year or just parts number ?

does any one know who's make it is and what year it is from ?

i tried putting the cups into my 83' goose frame - one side fitted nice but the other side is about 1mm all round small ? ? can't work out why ? any one ?

also from the carboot today was a 25.4 double bolt Fishbone seat clamp

and a SunTour 17t freewheel

all this lot for £4 sweet

cheers B

cheers mate for the pic

do the cups look right for a tioga set ? the rest seem to match or so, but the inside cup edge is not the same - and it still doesn't explain why one of the cups is out by a mill all around ?

cheers B

It's one of these B. Got one here all exactly the same except my axle is stamped 83-C & has a little Tange logo (could be a year thing)

Tange also released it in their own branded packaging. Got another CV-170 Axle from a CK-170DX BB Set with no logo or date stamp.
Hope that helps

Is it definitely the cup? Did you try them both in the same side?
I'd maybe make a metal shim - Coke can or some of that foil ribbon used for Pro Class Rims
