    I just crashed and cracked the frame to my 2008 cannondale six13. (bummer) Anyway, I just purchased a TIME speeder frame and I'm wondering how I can figure out if the bottom bracket from the old bike will fit on the new frame.

    All I know is that the TIME frame BB shell is 68mm and the cannondale BB is a truvativ gigapipe.

    Thanks in advance!

    Call me adventurous, but I think if you tried to screw the BB in you will know pretty soon if it will fit or not....

    I'm guessing it will. If it is 68mm and threaded the same way, that is.

    If your CANNONDALE's frame has external cups, then the BB from the TIME will fit it ...

    Both frames are 68mm BSA (English-threaded). Since the Truvativ is external, you might want to check if the Time frame has had the bb faced, and if not, then have it done someplace.
