Hey guys,

I found out after 6 months finally...that the clicking in my bike is not the frame YAYYY its my BB

sighhh...Anyways, I ain't looking to get another FSA BB since they're reviews haven't been that good specially the one that is supopsed to be designed for my cranks (BB7000).

So anyways, i've been looking to get a Shimano XTR M960 BB i've been told by a Paligap technician that the Shimano BBs are far better, smoother and longer lasting. I was thinking of getting a Hope but they are just too costly, for half the price...i can get the XTR.

So my questions...

1) Is the M960 XTR BB anygood (can't find it on the MBuk reviews)?
2) Has anyone tried the combination of the BB with a FSA MegaExo or similar FSA cranks?
3) Is the Bottom bracket 24mm in diammeter for my Axle on the Cranks.

Thanks in advance

    it will fit.

    but you may have to play with some spacers on the axle.
