I was just wondering if 128mm spindle with 68-73mm shell is the right size bb for an 07 echo control.

if you want to run FSA road cranks you might be able to get a lower Q factor from a 113mm. Just a thought.

If you run a FFW it will work the best. You can sometimes get away with a 118 if you run a fixed front. I had to run a 128 * 68 on my Adamant. FWIW

will the same size bb that I stated in the first post fit a zoo pitbull as well?

you'll find that 68x128mm is the most common size for trials bikes.

should be right.

The control is a stock bike and I wouldn't run such a huge spindel length with it..73/118 would be fine it. That's what I ran on mine when I had one and it worked great.68/128 are for mods, most of the time..

128 will keep your ankles as far away as possible from your rear brakes..

I've got a 128 spindle on my '06 Control with at front freewheel. In my opinion, I would not want any shorter.
