I have a Felt 3X (2015) CX Bike that has Ultegra crankset and has a FSA BB30 w/ 24mm spindle reducers bottom bracket. I took it apart to verify it was the same as on the specs and looks to be. If I am interpreting what I see correctly, the spindle is 24mm on the Ultegra so it uses the adapters to drop down from the 30mm internal race diameter of the bearings to the 24mm of the spindle. The bearings are press fit into the from with the c-ring on the inside and normal ring on the outside - additional dirt seal.
The bearings are in need of replacement. Before I do that, I wanted to check and see if there was a better solution or recommendation for replacement? Tried to look at bunch of websites and video but only got more confused. If not, will just replace bearings and reuse the adapters, easy enough, but I did see other adapters for sale for 68mm widths but was not sure if this was an "upgrade" or was to fix frames where the bearing seats may have been damaged, etc.
Thanks for the help.
