Well, the measurements are in. The spindle is in fact 107mm and
appears to be symmetrical. So, I'm guessing the issue is with the
machining of my particular XD2.
This is okay as far as I'm concerned. I have no riding problems with
the Q-factor or chainline I have with the 113mm BB.

I say, the interference appears to affect nothing. So (especially

Thanks for that info, William. I'll look at it again tonight.
Any idea what role that channel is supposed to play? My vague recollection is
that I'll need to bend the cable 180 degrees to go over the nub and through the
channel. If so, that seems "harsh" somehow.

Th

It might even reduce/eliminate the interference that inspired this thread in
