Avanti Bottom Bracket - Help
Postby russ » Mon Jan 15, 2007 4:41 pm
I have an Avanti - Vuelta Road Bike. I want to upgrade the cranks (and possibly the BB) to a carbon compact set. I have no idea if the the thread is english or italian. Does any one know ?

It's most likely an 'english' thread - particularly if it has Shimano components. Avanti is an Australian / NZ company that designs and assembles bikes from components sourced from major manufacturers.

I believe that it's actually a New Zealand company, hence their strong relationship with Sarah Ulmer and the 'Sarah Ulmer Brand' (sub) range.peterrjleach wrote: Avanti is an Australian / NZ company that designs and assembles bikes from components sourced from major manufacturers.

Well bugger me, the bottom of their web site has contacts for Australia and New Zealand. I never noticed that. I assumed with a name like Avanti they were Italian.peterrjleach wrote:It's most likely an 'english' thread - particularly if it has Shimano components.

I suppose it's like the Australian UNO clothes brand, they have to sound European to make sales in Europe since cycling is such a big past time there.
