Whats wrong with being unimpressed with my bulbous shiney BB?
@mdcc_tester - Thanks for the inspiration, bit of a gamble. Anyone know conclusively?
These guys seem to agree to disagree: http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/hope-gxp-bottom-bracket-converter
I saw someone out the other day with a BB that was no thicker than the shell of the frame. Pretty sure it was a steel frame, so less likely to be one of the numerous press fits out there. Any ideas folks?

Thanks all for your pedal opinions. Managed to salvage a set of 520s which i'll stick with for now. However there are more pressing issues now.
Got a lovely Rival 10 speed groupset which I've just stuck on the road machine. I think its the best looking groupo around, apart from the bottom bracket...its silver and bulbous.
Does anyone know a GXP compatible black more "low profile" BB that wont break the bank (not Hope/Chris King)
I can see one on planet x, and one by uber. Anyone know of any others? lower the profile the better as its going on a skinny steel road frame. Thanks in advance!
