its a range thing, when they first came out they were 91-Dura.
Now theres a 71 which is more Ultegra/XT.
its the 1 or a 2 that will catch you out. a 91 will not fit a hole for a 92.

However, both the BB-91 and BB-91 are for BB92 fitments.. ๐Ÿ˜ฏ

Don't you love standards..

More a case of "don't you just love product level naming conventions with names/numbers almost identical to the BB standard, that are so similar it's impossible not to get confused".
