hi,

i selling a force chainset with matching gxp bb
my friend could be interested in it but he has a scott addict frame currently fitted with a bb86 and he also has a mega exo. does anyone have any idea if my gxp force chainset combo would fit his frame? are any of his bbs compatible wth the crank and would me gxp bb fit his addict frame?
many thanks!?

    If he's using a Shimano press fit BB he'll have to swap to a sram BB86 gxp press fit BB, I've just put one in a Scott with a SRAM chainset.

    He'd need to fit a GXP press fit BB86 BB to the frame to allow him to use the Force cranks.
    Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..

    is there anyway i can find out if my bb is an 86? how do you tell?

    he currently has a bb86 fitted to the scott so how can he tell if his current one is a gxp? can you tell by the crank he was using?

    thanks!
