Hi,
I have a specialized Tarmac and I wanted to change to a compact chain set so bought a used one off bikeradar.
The BB currently on the bike is a Shimano SM-FC5600 (BC 1.37 x 24). This is listed in the tech doc as having 68mm shell width.
The new chain set is an FSA CK-6020. This combo is incomparable. So, I need a BB to fit the frame and the chain set.
Does this look like the right thing? http://www.fullspeedahead.com/products/54/BB-6000-ROAD
English threading - 68 mm width (BC-1.37” x 24T)
Hope someone can advise.
Thanks.

Should I "persuade" it?
The shimano slides in and out with no effort.
Actress and bishop etc etc.0 -
Sorry, I just want to check. I shouldn't really force it should I?0
