BB compatibility

Hey guys, another n00b question from me.

Would an Italian thread BB work on a Specialized? or would it need an English thread?

Only English.

 

Italian BBs are a few mms larger than English BBs and have a right hand thread on both sides. English BBs have a left-hand thread on the one side.

Looks like Italian threaded BB's are on their way out. Most of the big Italian brands are now selling with English threaded BB's.
