English or Italian thread

danny1c

Need to fit a new bottom bracket to my Specialised Tri Cross but would it be English or Italian thread? I'm guessing English if anyone can confirm that would be great. Thanks

Just to add it 68mm wide.

English innit.

1,000,000% certainty that it's 68mm BSA. Only a very few Italian-made frames are ITA threaded.

Italain threaded shells are 70mm wide English are 68mm wide (so are Swiss and French threads but you have a modern Spec and these threads are old and long since obsolete).

specialised use BSA english threaded BB unless it has a press fit system I do not think the Tric cross does.
