Hi,
Just a quick question really before I spend some money.

Will my Fsa Gossamer compact chainset work with this Shimano external bottom bracket? The bottom bracket on it at the moment is an Fsa external cupped job - its not press fit or anything like that.

    Free Bump ;-) !

    I don't know the answer but am interested in this, as I may be changing over to FSA soon !

    Yes, I've been running a Gossamer MegaExo on a Shimano HT2 BB for a few years with no worries - it might need a bit of a nudge with a mallet to get it on to start with.
    Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..
  • If you have the earlier version with the pinch bolt then yes. Later version without has a narrow left (or right?) bearing. There is a thread on this if you do a search
  • Nice one - thanks for the replies.
