Have done a search but didn't find the answer to my question.

I have been tasked with changing the bottom bracket on my friends boardman team fs. It has truvativ firex cranks and a truvativ bottom brakcet. I am sure I read somewhere that the truvativ cranks are not compatible with shimano bottom brackets so will need to buy a truvativ/gxp one. Is this the correct info?

What would people recommend (other than buying new chainset pls)?

    you will need a GXP compatible set of cups.
