Back in October, Wheels Manufacturing announced their BB Multi Adapter Kit, then it got pulled back to the drawing board.
Now, finally, it’s available on their website and shipping. WM’s Dave Whittingham says they lengthened the sleeve of the adapters so they’d have better contact with the bottom bracket bearings even when used with spacers between adapter and frame.
The kit has everything you’d need to fit Shimano or SRAM GXP cranksets into BB30 and PFBB30 frames using the bearings already in your frame or bottom bracket. The kit also includes a massive variety of spacers for both systems, enough adapters to do four Shimano bikes and four SRAM bikes, plus extra wave washers and a removal tool.
