Frame switch, BB sizing?

I've got a Ragley MMMBop and am want to switch the kit I have on it to an On One 456 Carbon. I'm not sure about the bottom bracket size differences though, the Ragley has a 68mm BB shell, while the 456 has a 73mm BB.
What are the implications of the 5mm difference? I have a SLX double and bash on at the moment, will I need a new BB, crank?

You'll just remove BB-spacers. It'll be fine.0

68mm bb uses 3 spacers, 73mm uses 1 spacer. or one less in each case if a bb mount chain device is used."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."
