Hi chaps,
What's the spacing you need on a 73mm BB shell when using a GXP crank and a Hope BB with the GXP adapters?
Is it none? Or one 2.5mm spacer on the drive side?
Or... Something different!
Cheers!

It change nothing on the spacing, just file a groove in so you can get them off easily if you need to
Ok, but - for a Hope BB with standard 24mm cranks that would be one 2.5mm spacer on the driveside.
For a 24mm GXP crank, with GXP BB that would be no spacers.
Which one do you mean?
I went with the hope config, then I swapped a spacer to get chainline better bit for a fast answer mail hope
I went with the 1 spacer (standard cranks) on my setup. GX eagle GPX cranks with boost chainring (and boost rear end of course). It’s been runn8ng fine since June.
1 spacer on DS like normal
It worked for me with the same spacerage as on a Shimano Hollowtech II type setup, so one on the DS for a 73mm shell. That is with SRAM GX cranks.
Awesome! Cheers guys, much appreciated đŸ™‚
notch the adaptors before fitting them! like Mike said.
+1 for 1 on driveside, and another +1 for the notch
