Subject: ISIS w/ External Bearings for replacement?

I've got a set of Raceface Turbines with an ISIS bb that's churning its way to oblivion. Does anyone make an external bb that works with these cranks? I found this: http://www.sram.com/en/truvativ/bottombrackets/howitzer/team.php but I think it only works with new versions of ISIS splined cranks. TIA. Scott

I guess the interface point on newer versions of the external ISIS cranks are much narrower? /s

Get some spare ISIS BBs or new crank.

The manual says "Compatible only with Howitzer system crankarms". Even if a standard ISIS crank fits on the spindle, the chainline will be off and the tread will be noticeably wider.
