    Hopefully somebody can help me here before I press the BUY button.

    I have a 2013 model year Felt Z6 with a square taper bottom bracket which needs replacement. I have the old one in my hand and what I see written on it is (descriptions in brackets my own):
    RPM (Manufacturer)
    BB-7420 (Model)
    BC 1.37X24T (Means British threads measuring 1.37 inches x 24 threads per inch)
    <- 68 -> (Distance from one cup face to the other is 68 mm)
    Using a calipers, I have measured the length of the spindles @ 103mm. After some research, I see there are various Square Taper standards (link), but I can't see which one is mine for sure. It might be JIS. Is there such a thing as centered / non-centered spindles?

    Ignoring my last point, I think I need a 68X103 JIS square taper bottom bracket with 1.37X24T British threads. Looking on EBAY, I see the following:
    Would any of these work? I'm more interested in reliability over weight ...
