Some updates!
Bike24 replied to my inquiry and said that they sent me the right model (Sram road), which apparently doesn't come with spacers (hmmmmmm) ["Road bike BBs usually don't come with spacers"].
Okay, so I visited two bike shops and both said that this particular CK BB would not fit my Sram Omnium, as I have play/clearance in any direction on the NONDRIVESIDE. Basically just as if you'd try to use the CK Shimano BB with a TAPERED Sram spindle: it won't work! Both also believed that this wouldn't even be the "Sram road" version... Because my CK BB also lacks this typical Sram tooth cap: http://r2-bike.com/bilder/produkte/gross/Truvativ-SRAM-GXP-Specialized-OSBB.jpg I mean, the Omnium stock BB has that and it fits on the spindle perfectly on the NONDRIVESIDE.
I think I need a CK BB which comes at least with this toothcap... as an indicator that it could work out :D
Not even sure if I can return my CK BB now as it has some visible marks left from the installation & deinstallation (using my old stock BB again ... for now) -_____-
