I have a wilier with a English bb and I am looking to change the frame to another wilier with a Italian bb, I have already a FSA SL-K crankset on my current frame (English bb), to fit the SL-K crankset on the new frame (Italian bb) would I just need to buy a new Italian bb or and new crankset?
cheers

    New BB will do the job, crankset is the same.....

    Yep, the internal diameter of the bearings is the same so your crankset is fine - it's just the part that screws to the frame that is different.
    I'm left handed, if that matters.
