Exchageable Nuovo Record cups



The fixed cup, Italian, in one of the first Alan BB shells , 1975,
doesn't want out. The bearing race track look perfect, though.

If I wish to swap out the spindle and crankset of the Nuovo Record
that is installed, for a triple, can I use the authorized length
Campagnolo spindle for the particular triple and reuse the old cups?
Or use a Sugino triple crankset with its suggested length spindle?

Yes, I know this is a Sutherland's question and may also get into the
thin-cup / thick-cup issue.
