HELP.....

Just bought a CAAD10 frameset which has had an English Thread BB conversion :(

I don't want to risk having the conversion removed but wondered if its possible to still fit a Rotor BB30 crank by using external cups or similar? :noidea:

I'd be surprised if it was that tricky to remove. But should you really be averse to it rotor makes the following BB for BSA frames: http://rotorbike.com/catalog/default/ro ... -30-1.html

It'll be a lot unnecessary weight you're carrying around! I actually had a CAAD10 converted to BSA with a SRAM adaptor and it was a REALLY tight fit. LBS told me it'd be best if nobody tried removing it..

The adaptor appears to be aluminium so I hope not too heavy and I have ordered the Rotor BB30 cups which I hope will do the trick as I want to install a 3D+ crank
