Product Information

Full details

The FSA BB30A Reducer Kit is designed for cyclists and mechanics looking to install 24mm MegaExo cranksets into frames with a PF30A asymmetric bottom bracket shell. This kit provides the necessary mechanical interface to ensure a secure, creak-free fit for your drivetrain, though it requires precise installation to align with the specific asymmetric width requirements of the frame.

FAQs

Will this work with a standard BB30 frame?

No, this kit is specifically designed for PF30A (PressFit 30 Asymmetric) frames. It will not fit a standard BB30 shell.

Can I use this with non-FSA 24mm cranks?

While intended for MegaExo, it is compatible with many 24mm hollow spindles, but FSA recommends matching with MegaExo components for optimal tolerances.

Do I need special tools?

Yes, a dedicated bearing press tool is required to ensure the adapters are installed evenly and safely without damaging the frame.

Is grease required during installation?

Yes, light application of grease to the interface surfaces is recommended to ensure a snug fit and prevent future noise.

What is the primary benefit of this kit?

It allows for the use of robust 24mm MegaExo cranksets in specialized asymmetric frames that would otherwise require specific, often heavier or more expensive options.

Troubleshooting

Audible creaking under load

Remove the crank, clean the adapter surfaces, re-apply high-quality marine-grade grease, and torque the crank bolt to specification.

Spindle feels loose after installation

Verify that all required spindle spacers were installed according to the crankset manufacturer's diagram; you may need additional shims to take up lateral play.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Allows use of preferred 24mm cranksets in PF30A frames
  • High build quality consistent with FSA drivetrain standards
  • Reliable interface reduces risk of bottom bracket noise
  • Straightforward installation for experienced mechanics

Cons

  • Requires professional-grade press tools for installation
  • Specific to PF30A frames and not universal to all BB30 variants
  • May require additional spindle spacers depending on crank model

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation requires a professional bearing press tool. Ensure the PF30A shell is clean and free of debris before pressing the reducers. Apply a high-quality bicycle-specific grease to the contact surfaces to prevent creaking. Compatibility is strictly limited to 24mm MegaExo spindles and PF30A asymmetric frames; do not attempt to use this with standard 30mm BB30 cranks. For maintenance, periodically inspect the crankset for play and ensure the bearings are not showing signs of pitting or resistance during rotation.
