Evening all,

Got an On-One whippet coming soon (used frame). Currently has a BB installed but I don;t know how worn it might be.

Q1) Can I put my sram x0 cranks straight through this BB?
Q2) Is this (the MTB one) what it takes if I want a replacement?

Q3)Is the only difference between the two BB's linked above the length of the plastic sleeve that separates the cups? And if so could you use a road one of these if you used the old sleeve from a previous BB? Reason I ask is I have a road one kicking about in the garage somewhere.

Q4) Can you press the cups in with a large flat vice like with a headset and if so can anyone recommend a cheap removal tool?

Any advice is greatly appreciated
