I just bought a new FSA crank for the boardman im getting in Jan, question i, what size BB am I going to need?

I am looking at this one:

I dont want this to turn into an ISIS flaming thread either, I know people that have used it without any problems.

Thanks

    what length axle do the cranks require?

    most likely the 108mm version but it does depend on the cranks.

    so read the manual.

    If the crank you've bought is ISIS (you don't say this explicitly) then:

    108 is road double

    113 is mtb

    118 is road triple

    There may be exceptions but not on any of the cranks I've used.
