Any ideas folks?
BBR60 has an OD of 41mm, compared with 44mm for normal HT2/GXP/UT cups. It's not much, but next to a steel BB shell with an OD ~39mm, it's quite a difference. Of course, one of the cups is almost completely obscured by the spider, and the other is half hidden by the NDS crank, so it's possible that you're just being ludicrously pernickety :-)

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?
