• @Borek Ah fair enough, to be honest I wouldn't like a load of water floating around in the BB shell come think of it.

    @Skant cheers mate, no unfortunately the pic of my Dart is on my old phone which is dead :( it did look the part, got dubbed the "bat bike" haha. If it was my size it would have probably be fine.

    What's the deal with the Hope BB/GXP converter? I've been reading up on it but people are a bit vague about what's actually needed.

  • Hope BBs use 24mm ID bearings, a GXP axel is 24mm drive-side, 22mm NDS. The converter is just two shims that sit around the NDS bearing to make up the extra 2mm…works perfectly


  • Nice one Skant, thanks for the info, I'll be ordering the BB and converter tomorrow just for peace of mind, I'll probably keep the GXP on the Duratec for now seeing as I don't ride it in the rain.
