I need your help, What does the second number on a bottom brackst size mean? I just need two more parts for my build, the frame and a new bb. Frame getting ordered tonight :D

My wife says the mountain of boxes at the house is disturbing. And no I won't tell you what I am building.

On bottom brackets that are not the outboard bearing type, the second number is the spindle length.

68x110, 68 mm shell, 110 mm spindle.

No gears...so all the extra boxes are for training wheels and handlebar pom poms. Busted!
