Pretty much decided , however I have no experience with 24mm press fit BB,s. I have been using a Hope BB love it. I see that not many bearing manufactures are doing press fits yet, unlike the BB30. Can anyone point me in the direction of a quality press fit BB and do you think they are here to stay??

BB and Fork

It looks like I am about to do it. So what are your recommendations for the Press fit BB? To stick with a 9mm QR or to go 15mm with the fork. Take into account I ride and race XCM with the wheels on the floor. I cant find find to many choices for press fit BB,s.

SRAM and Shimano both offer press fit bottom bracket & crank combinations. (BB92 bottom brackets) I'm not sure anybody else does, but I know people who have mounted FSA cranks with the shimano press fit bottom bracket.

Go 15mm, you mentioned earlier that you wanted it to be stiffer up front than your old bike. No drawbacks for 15mm relative to quick release.

Do it.
