That damn Texan has a lot to answer for. Now we have mountain bikers spinning their way over climbs, and spinning out on the flats thanks to these one by whatever setups. How I long for the days when men were men, and the chain ring at the front had more teeth than the gears at the back!

Hi, I need some advice.

 

I want to slap a Race Face Aeffect Crankset onto my Giant Reign and move to a 1x11 setup. Do I need a new bottom bracket to fit this crankset? I currently have the stock standard BB that came with the bike, think it's a Shimano pressfit BB?

Yes. You'll need the raceface pressfit bb.

Mmmm why do you say that Captain ... I thought they were also 24mm could just be a spacing issue, or am I just talking poofee?
