open cage bearings all use the same sized US bb cups so are fully interchangeable

Yep, agree with that. I have swapped, bought or traded framesets that still had the cups left in, I left in, and I used them, they used them. They all fit all looseball cages

Bullshit!

was that like a fast sneezey type bullshit ?

If your axle is threaded (Not where the nuts/or bolts that hold the arms on) then chances are that any looseball US BB for a 1 pc crank will fit.If it`s not threaded then the kit below will fit.

Hi,

Theres nothing wrong with the parts I just need some new BB cups which Spen or (Seen) is sorting for me .

Good shout on the kit though I also have one of these kits on another build i'm just about about to complete (as soon as my pad set & seat arrive), i've hooked that bb kit up to a set of sugino gt cranks & (all good) !
