Can anyone (Doug, John, others?) tell me what type/style/model/size the Quest bottom bracket is.
I want to source a replacement BB to add a smaller chain ring to the existing crank (stock chain ring on outside/new smaller ring on inside). Doug mentioned replacing it with a BB that is 5 mm shorter than the stock BB so the front rings are positioned correctly relative to the rear cassette, but I don't know what size/model the existing BB is? Perhaps it would indicate this on the BB if I removed it, but I'd rather order a replacement before doing this.
Is it the same type of BB as on the Sofrider? I recently replaced my Sofrider with a ?"Shimano UN55 BB Square Taper Bottom Bracket" from Amazon and saw that there were several different widths available. Would this BB also work on the Quest? If so, I guess I just need to figure out which width to order.
Thanks for the feedback...

BTW - I'm headed to San Antonio next week and intend to take the Quest with me. It looks like there is a nice path along the river there. I'll post a few pic's from my venture next week.
