I have a spare crank but its a GXP cup road crank from SRAM which fitted a 2010 road bike with a 130mm axel and 68mm BB.

The current new frame has 135 spacing for discs with 68mm BB.

I just tried it and yes fits but its bloody close to the stays!
I know the road crank spindle is shorter than a mountain bike spindle.

So far have the rear mech, forks, headset, bars, shifters bolted on.

Edit: found this info in case it helps somebody else.
