Tarmac SL6 Bottom Bracket

Can anyone advise what the sizes are of the bottom bracket on the new SL6 please?

Its OSBB but I want to know what the shell width is and diameter.

Basically looking to run a Shimano crankset and what adaptors I need.

The delrin Wheels mfg option is the cheapest at the moment but if it creaks i need other options.

Ceramicspeed do a full conversion kit which is similar to the Praxis options.

Any comments greatly appreciated.

Specy badges the 2018 Tarmac SL6 in one model only, S-Works. I'm curious to know if you are buying a new frame to build upon or a complete bike with plans to swap out the crankset? If the former, the frame comes with Ceramic Speed bearings. And Specy supplies from the factory BB30 24mm Shimano spindle cups, but not as an add-on aftermarket purchase. For the latter just Google OSBB Shimano adaptors as there are many choices on the mkt.

If your bottom bracket frame is 68mm wide and has a 46mm internal diameter then Hope do a screw together bottom bracket with 24 mm bearings which are replaceable.

I've just fitted one to my Boardman and its smooth and quiet.
