Opinions on bb30 crank (Sram Rival) on a BSA BBed frame?
The "BB30" cranks which are really 386Evo are fine, they use normal BB30 bearings in cups which screw into a BSC shell just like GXP or HT2 but a bit bigger. True BB30 cranks in a BSC shell should be avoided like the plague.
AFAIK, SRAM "BB30" cranks except Red Exogram are really 386Evo and use spacers to take up the slack when installed in BB30 or BBRight shells.

the bb30 cranks are a whole bunch lighter
Have you weighed them? SRAM says Rival22 is 16g heavier in BB30
SRAM 30mm axles are a poorly documented shit show, if you want something which will definitely work in a 68mm BSC shell, stick to GXP (or better still get a Shimano crank🙂)

Peoples,
Opinions on bb30 crank (Sram Rival) on a BSA BBed frame?
I know of the possibility of bsa30 bottom brackets.
Any cons? Longetivity?
Of course the safe route would be to go gxp but the bb30 cranks are a whole bunch lighter and I like the thought.
