Should be fine
I bought a new set of dual pinch flites for my Cruiser and they came with both a Euro and US BB which utilised the same axle

you should be able to use your existing cranks, it all depends on the spindle. if its a square tapered one most old school, and alot of new cranks will fit. it gets a bit more comlicated if your using splined or specialist spindeled cranks. if the cranks dont match the spindle you've got try alan woods, at alansbmx, he'll sort you out with what you need.

unless its an oversized spindle then a 19mm euro bb should be ok on that

spoke to ben manual at halfords, he said get in touch with custom riders, they do a pack for about £30 that will sort you out..
