Hi all,

I just got a set of Campagnolo Overtorque crank. It didn't include the conical spacers in figure 5 and 10 for BB30.

It only included these

Can anybody tell me whether the crank is supposed to come with the conical spacers for BB30 too? I haven't been able to find out much from googling...

Thank you!

@svm,
The conical spacers should come with the Campagnolo Overtorque BB30 bearing sets.
The crankset itself does not come with the conical spacers as it's designed to accommodate a wide range of crank systems, e.g BB386, BSA, PF30...some which do not require conical spacers.

Cheers

The spacers are 9 mm, and are needed to convert from a BB30 spacing to BB386evo, which is what Campy's overtorque crank is effectively.

Amazon has them at $16 for instance.

So let's just say I'm drivin' this buggy...

Got it! Thanks a lot!

Do you guys know where I can get the Campy spacers alone without the BB?

I've only been able to find the FSA bb386 to bb30 spacers. It looks like they're the same height, but just wanted to know if I can find Campy's directly.

Ribble has the FSA for $5 http://www.ribblecycles.co.uk/fsa-bb386-30-adaptor-fsa/

I'm noticing the difference in design though. Where the Campy appears to have a lip against the bearing. I'm a little puzzled about this since the Campy OT is supposed to be more of a "universal" crankset.

You might be better off buying the complete Campy BB, then you'll have a spare set of bearings.
