118mm, just measured my old one. BTW I have enough good enough parts to make
a serviceable unit if you want it.

Thanks to all concerned for feedback. However, getting suitable rings
to give the chainset a 38/48 set-up for cross may be more expensive
than I thought, so it looks like I'll have to take a different course
of action and see what else my bits box can come up with....

Regards,
David

I have some Biopace 38 and 48 rings with 110 PCD, used and I'm not sure if
they are good enough or not. I have never used them, they were in the box of
bits I was given when I bought the Pink Peril. Yours for twice the price of
postage. The offer on the BB still exists too.
