Sakae/Ringyo (SR) Apex / Super Custom bottom bracket axle (or BB spindle if you prefer), hailing from Japan and in production from the 1970s to the 1980s (yet still new & unused after all this time). Made from steel and weighing in at 215 grams. A fine choice for keeping your vintage bike authentic, but also great for any other compatible bike.

This axle is also compatible with other SR chainsets from the same era, including Aerox, CR, CX & Silstar.

If you're taking part in L'Eroica or any other vintage event, this is fully compliant - so rest assured, the pre-1987 police won't lock you up for having the wrong axle!

HELP SECTION
We've provided reference below to illustrate how we take the measurements.

Axle Type - for square tapers, the ISO introduced a standard for European makers in the early 90s, JIS then did the same in Asia. Before then it was not so simple, and although there is a degree of interchangeability, the best way to make sure you have the right axle is to stick to the same brand from the same era, ideally the proprietary model.

Axle Length (D) - your crankset dictates the axle length you need and the recommendation should be used to avoid issues with chainline. If you're replacing an axle that works perfectly then this can be matched, otherwise you'll need to check the manufacturers spec, a good resource for older bikes is Velobase.

Centre (B) - measured from the outside of the 'shoulders' of the bearing races, as seen in the diagram.

Drive Side (C) - the right side (with any logos etc on the axle facing you), your right crank and chainrings will mount to this side.

Non-Drive Side (A) - the left side, where the left crank arm will be mounted.

Shell Width - the width of the bottom bracket shell the axle was designed to fit, measured at its widest point.

Lightweight Hoodie
Color: Black Grey Heather, Size: XX-Large
This is my lightweight hoodie. It runs a bit small. I'm typically an XL, but I like my hoodies bigger, so I got a 2XL, but the fit is more of that of an XL. So it does appear to run small. The material is nice, but warm, which makes sense since it's polyester and spandex, not very breathable. I'm also worried about how it holds up over time with those materials, from my experience it will get those little fuzz balls, ruining the look, but time will tell on that one.
