Evening I am finding it confusing with the different standards of bb.

I want to purchase spare bb but unsure which is the correct spec of bearing ive been told its bb30 its got shimano hollowtech 2 crank. Ive tried looking for a spec sheet on cube website but they only have 2013 spec showing and not sure if its the same.

any info would be appreciated.

    well shimano do not do a BB30 crank-set.

    so if there is a BB30 BB then there is some adapters.

    Pics? links to the spec of the bike?

    is it fairly easy to replace these bearings if using homemade press?
