Am I correct in thinking that this is the correct procedure?

    BB30 uses a bigger bottom bracket and axle. So you cant just fit it to a normal frame. There are some BB30 cranks that can be modified to fit a nroaml frame but its an expensive gamble and only worth it for folks who want the lightest and best and have thousands of pounds to play with on parts that in the end, still might not be compatible.
