Any feedback from anyone using either the Wheels Manufacturing BB30 shims or Race Face BB30-X Type adaptor?

Specifically on the Wheels version, what spacers are you using to get a suitable chain line on a 68mm BB with Shimano HT2 cranks (XTR970 in my case)

Cheers

    Ok 73mm needs no spacers. 68mm does.

    on an HT2 set up you need a 5mm spacer.

    so you would need to use 5mm less than if it was a HT2 fitting.

    as the spacers are outboard of the adaptors it is easy to play with them to give the chainline speced for the frame or what you require.
