Hi there can anybody help me with this one, I can't seem to find out what type bottom bracket it is, I bought it just as a frame so also not sure which Clx it is ( not sure if this matters ). I am planning on running a sram red chainset so would be great if someone could point me in the right direction. Thanks Oliver

    Which CLX dou you have?
    CLX 3.0 has traditional BSA BB, so i guess the older models too.....

    If you have the frame why not just look at it and determine what it is?
    Threaded> right side left threadad> BSA
    Threaded> right side right threaded> Italian thread.
    If threaded you need SRAM GPX BB......either Italian or BSA.

    Likely to be BSA threaded -but just to check, measure the width of the bottom bracket. 68mm = BSA, 70mm = Ita. Italian is also bigger diameter - a BSA cup will simply be too small.
    Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..
