To the cleaver ones.
I want to change the cranks on my marlin to some xt hollow tech 1 cranks I have just got second hand, but I need a new bb.
The current square taper is 73 113
Will the hollow tech be the same?

Cool will get one on order ready,
2nd question.
The es range of bb is the higher the number the better?

just re read you post, thought it said hollowtech 2. Octalink cranks all used a 113mm bb for a "normal" chain line except the deore

Mmm
So the deor uses?

118mm, Think there's an lx that uses 121mm but all the xt were 113mm
