My friend has a 2012 Ghost AMR Lector 9500.

Nice light carbon 120mm bike.

He's looking to upgrade the chainset on it.

But it has one of those press fit 91-41 bottom brackets in it.

We tried blindly bewildered with the new bottom bracket standards to see if the fsa k force light triple chainset would fit.

But no dice.

Is there a carbon chainset that will fit this bottom bracket shell?

Is there a bottom bracket which will allow fittment of the above chainset? Which is a bb30 affair.

All help very muchly welcome.

Doesn't that bike have an XTR chainset? If so, anything else is a downgrade.

You might think a carbon FSA would be an upgrade over an XTR, but I can tell you categorically it is not.

My colleague has an AMR Lector 9500 like yours, full XTR, Mavic Crossmax, Ritchey Carbon bits etc. from the factory... Just don't bother! It's bling enough...

True true. But it's not my bike and he wants some carbon cranks.

Promised me the XTR ones. So naturally I feel inclined to help.
