Yeah, I'm just confused because almost everything else I have uses 68mm stuff. Anyway the BB is installed (correctly) now but I still need a lockring tool for the DM crank spider. I may just try the other (2x) cranks out but maybe I'll just be lazy for a few days instead.

I guess the good thing about ht2 is that it’s designed to work on 68 or 73mm shells. You don’t need a different bb, just a few spacers and in practice those spacers don’t need to adhere to the 1.8 and 2.5mm sizes, you can just whack (almost) anything in there in (almost) any order and it’ll (probably) work.

Yeah, makes sense... now. But when you don't know you don't know.

Now I need to either find the tool for the 1x or try installing the other 2x crankset so I can ride something tomorrow.

Actually would Condor or Sigma sell the chainring lockring tool, I wonder?
