Cartridge square taper BB 4 a Adamas AX square taper crank?
Anyone know if there's a Shimano square taper CARTRIDGE bottom bracket that I can put a square taper Shimano Adamax AX crankset on? My buddy wants one.. I have a Shimano Cartridge BB-UN51 but is seems as if the taper is different on it than on the crankset and thus the crankarms slide all the way to the shoulder of the spindle and the crankarms can be wiggled.
So, 1, are the tapers different and 2, is there a Shimano cartridge bottom bracket that'll work with the Adamas AX crankset? Thanks and cheers |

Likely different section of the crank taper, besides being most probably asymmetric. If you know the original spindle specs (overall length and the right/left offset) there may be a Campagnolo or Miche or Phil Wood product. Our archive here only gets us to 'use Shimano BB-SL-31', no specs or images sorry. -- Andrew Muzi www.yellowjersey.org/ Open every day since 1 April, 1971 |

I thought it might be another case of an orphan unit or an expensive workaround. Square taper cup and cone it'll be then. Cheers |

It may not even be an unusual spindle format (if I recall, it's not) but merely not of the "post-1990s cheap BB" style. -- Andrew Muzi www.yellowjersey.org/ Open every day since 1 April, 1971 |

Thanks and cheers https://www.sheldonbrown.com/bbtaper.html That's a great source but unfortunately the PDF documents I have show a splined bottom bracket not a square taper one. Thus I don't know if it's ISO or JIS but I think it must be an ISO one. Cheers |

Note the splines in the images especially the one in the top right hand corner. I looked at my crank to get the model number but the number is hidden by the chainrings and pant guard. I'm not about to take it apart just to see that number. Cheers |

The crankset I have has the chainring spider swagged onto the crankarm. The more I look at this unit and the more I think about it, the more I wonder if it's even an Adamas AX crankset. Cheers |
