I’m thinking of purchasing a shimano cx50 chainset from crc to go on my giant TCX.

However, it’s got a press fit bb86 bottom bracket, which I know bugger all about! Is it as simple as knocking the old knackered one out, and fitting one of these:

And fitting the shimano chainset?

shimano do a bb86/bb92 press fit BB that fit these frames/crank and LBS should be able to hook you up & fit

and use a proper tool to fit it wonky bearings are dead bearings.

Info on BB86

Park tool BB86

It would appear from that, any standard Shimano hollow tech chainset wth integrated axle will dop straight in to a BB86 bottom bracket shell.

So different to BB30 which requires a BB 30 specific chainset.

Edit: sorry read our op again. Looks like the KCNC will work as would:
