  1. R&G part number said M8 but :-

    Ordered Oxford ones from SBS they didn't fit, too thick a thread!

    Anyone know or recommend before Ire-order?

    Thanks All

  2. I'm not sure anyone would be able to make an informed analysis from the information provided.

    What bike are they for?
    By too thick a thread, do you mean too large a diameter, wrong tolerance class or wrong pitch?
    Pictures always help

  3. Oxford M8 bobbins are sold in 2 thread sizes, M8 x 1 and M8 x 1.25. From what I can find on the internet, the 698 has an M8 x 1.25 thread. Andy

  5. Hi thanks,
    That's got to be it.
    I got the m8x1.0 and initially it started to thread in.
    And then gave the impression it was too large in diameter.

    Kindest Regards
    Richard
