I have got a UniTi BB92 pressfit BB for my bike - it comes with a spacer. I have tried mounting it with the spacer but there seems to be some play.

Do any of you use spacers with your BB92 pressfit BB?

Thanks :-)

Got a standard bb92 from Sram that fits. Gonna have a talk with UniTi because the cup in the driveside was way to loose.

you have to use the 2,5mm spacer on the drive side, if your bottom bracket shell is 89,5mm wide.

Yes - used the spacer. I have located the problem to the cup in the driveside is too small. The Sram fits perfectly with no play but a bit heavier than the UniTi. I'm in contact with the shop so I hope for a good solution.
