I would like to ask all of you who own Vial EVO (D).
Imagine you'd buy an aero bike or frameset, what would you look for and why?
What would you rid of your list and why?

Aha, you use clincher version i understand.
No wonder it's tight with those wide clincher rims.
Tub version is 22-24-26-28.
I run 24mm tubs and it's not a problem at all (rim 26mm).

BB standards are, for some reason, very difficult for me to wrap my mind around. I currently run a rotor crank on my '09 Cervelo RS which is BSA. If I were to buy the Evo D and swap my stuff over, would I only need to worry about getting the correct BSA to BB386 adapter, or is it way more complicated than that?
Cheers.
Cheers.
Does your crank say 3D+ or 3D30 on it? If yes, its 30mm. If no, its 24mm.
What kind of bottom bracket are you running? If its anything other than a Rotor (e.g. shimano bottom bracket) then it will be 24mm. Rotor makes both a 24mm bb and a special one that lets you run Rotors 30mm cranks on a threaded shell.
Or you could just take it out and measure with some calipers....

Specialized Tarmac Sworks SL6, Moots Compact, Carl Strong Titanium
The BB is made by Rotor as well, and the model is the SABB BSA Road L. It doesn't list the spindle length, but from what I have seen around the internet it would appear to be a 24mm. The BSA 30mm say on the BB itself, but the 24's don't from what I've seen.
So let's assume that this is the case - What does this mean for adapting it to the Vial Evo's standard of BB386?
Many thanks BTW

Rotor doesn't make a 24mm to 386 bottom bracket. They have a BB which allows you to install cranks w/ a 24mm spindle on a PF30 frame (68mm BB shell).

IIRC, the Vial EVO cups are already pressed in the BB. So this might be the best adapter:

Hi
this is my first post although it is a long time since i 've started
following this forum.I have very recently finished building an amazing Vial Evo.
The ride gives you an extraordinary feeling every time but there is something
ruining the whole magic.I have noticed a very small play in the upper bearing
of the headset.This happens no matter how much i torque(not overtorque) the
screw from the headset cap and the ones from the stem.Any suggestions would
be appreciated.
