Hi,

I have this bike
http://www.climbonbikes.co.uk/store/offers/2012-cube-agree-gtc-di2-info

A 2012 Cube Agree GTC, I just need to know what press fit BB to buy as I have no idea! The crank isnt spinning that freely any more and seems to be a tad stiff. At one point i had to force it around and then it seemed to loosen up.

Thank you

    As far as I can establish Cube use an 86.5mm diam BB shell size on their bikes. If that's the case then this will do the job:-

    You can always search for a cheaper option if you want.

    Do the cranks sit flush against the frame or is there a big spacer in there?

    Edit: I think arlowood has got the right one.

    They seem to fit flush against the frame. Thank you to you both. Appreciate it

    remove the non-driveside arm and see if they're smooth then.

    sounds like a shimano pressfit, google BB91 and see if it looks like yours.

    Ask the bike shop where you bought it!
    It's just a hill. Get over it.

    Shimano BB86 press-fit as identified earlier.
    Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..
