Just got hold of a cheap rr8.2 frame to swap over to as my bike is too big for me does anybody know what size and type of front mec will fit and what size the bb is ? As these are the 2 parts I'm having difficulty finding out about. I have a slx rear mec and ideally want something similar to match with it on the front.

Thanks in advance

Dave

    it all depends on what you are fitting. but measure the BB shell as that is good to know. Most likely 68mm but could be 73mm.

    have a look on the seat post clamp that will give you a clue to the seat post size. 31.8 or 34.9 at a guess.
