Hey guys,

New to this forum but have been on others for awhile.

Anyone have some info on the correct BB spacers for Saint cranks on a Trek Session? Saint BB as well, M820.
Using it with a Csixx chain guide, in case it matters.

Building up my first DH bike and got a good deal on a 2012 frameset, pretty excited!

Thanks everyone!

Thanks. Sorry, I should have been more clear. Not which type of shims but the amount and orientation of them. 1 on each side, 2 on drive side and 1 on the other, etc

The shell width is 83mm right??

You'll have to double check but it should be two spacers drive side and one spacer non-drive

Huh? That's what you'd do on a 68mm shell but on a 73 or 83mm with ISCG mounted guide isn't it 1 spacer drive side, 0 non-drive? If that guide is BB mounted it replaces the single drive side spacer.

This is correct for an 83mm shell - 2x2.5mm spacers on the drive-side and 1x2.5mm spacer on the left side.
