  • MT8000 BB spacers question

    Just fitting a Shimano MT8000 BB to a V3 Bronson. Does anyone know how many spacers go on which side? There are no instructions as such in the box.

    I’ve gone with 1 on the DS as gap between the crank arm and rear triangle was less than the NDS. I’m thinking it might need 2 to equal it out more.

    Last BB was an uberbike GPX with 1 on the NDS

    Thanks but it’s a Raceface crankset. Does the same apply?

    Yep, the same with a RF crankset.
    68mm shell width: 2x spacers DS, 1x spacer NDS.
    73mm shell: 1x spacer DS, 0x spacers NDS.

    If you’re not sure on the shell width you can use a normal ruler – as long as 0 is lined up properly you can tell which side of the 7cm mark it is.

    Cheers both.

    It’s a 73mm BB shell so 1x on DS and none on the NDS
