do i need to replace the Race Face BB with the same or will a shimano offering fit?
any will do. using hope with mine
thanks for the reply.....
so long as it's a 30mm axle, right?
Yes, you need a 30mm BB, which I don't think Shimano do, for example, as their cranks are not 30mm
any will do.
Except all the ones that won't...
What is the frame? BSA, pressfit?
Strive.... threaded BB.

Hope threaded bb. I have one in black for £60 that I have just taken off a bike. That’s posted with the 30mm specific bb tool.
Rotor and Wheels Manu. also do a 30mm BSA.
Wheels Mfg - has a decent external seals as well as the bearing seal and bigger balls - outlasts the rubbish RF ones which I've had corrode after one ride.
My Rotor BB has been excellent.
Another vote for rotor . Comes with tool and seems to last well.
I use a hope bottom bracket. Found I had to use a few spindle spacers to get the crank spaced equally
Rotor BB for me.
TBH I was pretty happy with the raceface BB, it outlasted the crank arms anyway
