euro BB's are way better for everything (small MTB style one) and American BB (Big push in bearings) suck massively. It gets in the way and has to be pressed in, and weights to much.

STRONGLY urge you to also take that frame to a shop to have the BB chased and faced!!! I was on vacation and ordered my Riot from a shop there, picked it up not knowing the threads were so gnarled from the chainstay welds and put it together in a remote campground. You guys will love this: I used my HANDLEBARS on the end of my bb tool to crank the BB cuos in!! YES! I'm a desperate moron on occasion! Hey...whatever it takes to ride!

And I suggest Primo Powerbites w/22mm spindle over ANY cromoly crank. No ankle knockers, SUPER SIMPLE and fast ti instal and they fit the Mob/Riots quite nicely!

Can't go wrong with Profiles, got em on mine and love it.

IMO Primo just sucks with their hollowbites and powerbites that damn tapered spindle is crap. My buddy's always popped and pinged, f'n annoying. He's have it torqued down but it'd always pop. Others might not have had this prob, I bet yours is all good Trill but it was enough to convince me to stay with splined cranks.
