Hello - new to the forum
Tell me if im posting in the wrong section!
I'm sort of new, been mtb'in for a year/ year & half.
I had a cube analog - 29ner - wasn't ideal for downhill fun stuff, done me well though and now sold as parts..
Kept the bars, seat, gears, brakes, all fits my new frame i bought (very nice lapiere zesty 314) It came with a new xtr "sm-bb93" -
now being new to mtb - i cant use my cube crankset ive kept in this xtr bb can i ? my cube cranket ive kept is - (Shimano Acera FC-M371 44x32x22T, BB-UN26 123mm)
if i take out the xtr bb out of my lapierre will my cube bb and crankset fit :S? - confused.
if not - what cranksets will work with the xtr bb & my gears i still have?
Cube parts i have.
Rear Derailleur Shimano Deore RD-M592 SGS Shadow, 9-speed
Front Derailleur Shimano Alivio FD-M430, Top Swing 34.9mm, 9-speed
Shifters Shimano Acera SL-M390 Rapdifire-Plus, 9-speed
Crankset Shimano Acera FC-M371 44x32x22T, BB-UN26 123mm

to work with that bottom bracket any Shimano hollowtech 2 chain sets with a 24mm axle should work fine with it or any other make with a similar sized axle, I think race face may do some.
have a look in the online sales, I'm sure you will be able to find an slx or xt chain set for a good price.0 -

Yes....
For a Zesty though personally I'd be looking at getting a second hand crankset and fitting it with a narrow wide chainring and going 1x gearing.Currently riding a Whyte T130C, X0 drivetrain, Magura Trail brakes converted to mixed wheel size (homebuilt wheels) with 140mm Fox 34 Rhythm and RP23 suspension. 12.2Kg.0
