Moving from a 73 to 83mm BB width. I already sold one SRAM XX1 chainset to buy a 168Q (boost) model, and now my chainset doesn’t seem to fit. I tighten it up, and the CS doesn’t really turn (new BB, no spacers), my common sense says that it’s likely that the same CS won’t just be able to cover an extra 10mm,
Can someone tell me that I won’t have to sell (at significant loss, again) my very nice carbon XX1 chainset and new BB to buy a new one?
If it is the case, what chain sets do people recommend? Raceface any good nowadays? Any good deals on the hope ones if they’re any good?
The SRAM site is next to useless, and I can’t seem to see options on BB width on any of the shop sites.
Sorry for the shit questions, any help very gratefully received.
