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?

I know it doesn’t help you get out tomorrow but incase it’s a toll you want to own, I bought this one and it seems perfectly fine.

Can you just use a regular single tooth lock ring spanner? Like one you'd use for a track lock ring? I've used those for removing and installing external bbs and it stuff, but it does scratch it up a bit.
