    it comes with the bearings and spacers that you will need.

    Just measure the with of the shell (68 or 73mm) after removing the old bb and having the shell faced on both sides. You will need new BB fitting tools.

    How toos can be found on Parktools and fitting info if not provided can be found on Shimanos webby.
