Rotor 3D uses a 24mm axle and external screw in bottom bracket cups.
Rotor 3D+ uses a 30mm axle and either press fit or screw in external bottom bracket cups.
Assuming the Vig is threaded then you'll either need the 24 or 30mm external cups.

My rotors have a threaded bb.
Are you using track ones?
What axle do they have?Edit: better answer ^ lol

Dredging this thread as the title seems most apt for my question. I'm thinking of treating myself to a silly frame, something with the sole intent of making me happy, and it's been days I have a tab open with the Time ADH 23 in candy pink. The only thing I'm not sure is the press fit BB.
I know there's a camp that says creaking is due to bad manufacturing, tolerances, whatever, and Time should be pretty good in that regard, but I'm not sure if that passes scrutiny IRL. I know I can't live with an expensive, ridiculous peacock of a frame that sounds like a rusty door hinge.
Will it creak, like, for sure?

Pressfit is fine, sure, some brands did stupid standards and shitty frames out of it but for the rest the only real problem is that you need presses and extractors to change bearings.
I'd rather get pressfit, saves to glue some heavy threaded shell in your light carbon frame. -

It'll be fine

You're probably right about higher end brands being more likely to be within tolerance, but even if it does creak you can probably sort it, if not with some bearing retention compound then with one of those nice clamping BBs which make the whole arrangement a lot more legit... Although that solution is fairly spendy, involving a new tool.

Buy it, bikes like that are rare.
The candy pink Time on Weight Weenies is very nice.
