I'm looking to upgrade my bottom bracket and was looking at the hope ceramic 68/73, I'm not sure what the sizing means. Will this fit my mondraker foxy r 2011? I know I will need some conversion bushes as I have a SRAM chainset. If any body knows about the sizing could you let me know.

Cheers john

    68 or 73 are the two sizing options for an MTB BB (There is a larger DH option, but the foxy doesnt run that). You will be fine with the hope one you are looking at. It has spacers to adjust the fit between the two sizes. You can measure the shell (the bit that holds the BB on your frame and then space as per the manual (but its 1 on the drive for 73, 2 drive, one non drive for 68 if you're wondering) to find out what you need with regards spacer set up.

    Good stuff, simple as that hey! I will measure the shell but I'm guessing it will be one spacer as it currently has. Cheers for that!
