a reply to Mike on the SKF BB. This is a symmetric BB, and they offer spacers up to 4mm. I would go for the 116 and make sure you have the 3 available spacers (1.5, 2, 4). This will get you up to the extra 10mm with the width plus spacer offset, and gives you 3 other options for dialing in chainline. The SKF square tapers are Big, and the crank arms don't seat very deeply on them.
