Am I right to think 2012 SRAM cranksets came in either GXP or BB30??I'm trying to reuse an old force crankset and the shaft seems to be 24mm all the way across..but if HAS to be GXP if it's not BB30, right?
So there was no SRAM spec identical to shimanos, way back in the day?
The old 2012 catalog seems to say it can either be BB30 or GXP but can't help to check.
Thanks

GXP is 24/22mm. There is a step-down on the non driveside, should be clrealy visible.

Yes, and I can't see any Stepdown on this short which is why I'm wondering if SRAM ever made a straight 24mm shaft like Shimano?

The nds bearing works on the splined section; it's not a noticeable step on the main axle

I've got pre sram truvativ cranksets which are exactly the same.
