Hi all

I am fitting a hope BB onto a mk2 soul (builders tea edition) with an XT chainset.

The BB is 73mm - am I right in thinking I need one spacer drive side?

I have an older soul that needed 2 drive side and one non-drive side.

Sorry to post here but Cotic are away on holiday until new year - I would have written to them directly otherwise

Cheers C_D

73mm bb is just one spacer drive side. No spacers if using an e type front mech, which you wont be.

Just to add - my warranty replacement mk2 had a different size bb to my mk1, IIRC.

Hi plums - yes that's what I thought - my early soul seems different to the new (second hand) one I just purchased. That's what confused me. That, it seems is easily done!
