Hey guys, Does anyone know whether or not a Blackspire Stinger (BB mount) would be compatible with a Shimano slx hollowtech BB. (the one that comes with the slx double with bash)?

Yes. As Orangeboy said - I an SLX double with Stinger and setting up was easy peasy.

It will fit with the BB, but if you have a 73mm bottom bracket shell AND you want to run a granny ring you'll probably run into trouble like so:

Managed to get it going with a grinder reshaping the stingers back plate a bit and another thin BB spacer (making it wider than ideal), but sill got a little chainrub in lower gears
