Like the title says, I bought a 2013 Demo 8 Frameset. Its beautiful and I cant wait to ride it. But before I can ride it I have a couple pieces I need to buy and just want to get some confirmation before I plop down the cash for the miscellaneous stuff.

1) PF30
I have a set of LG1+ cranks, and the frame is PF30, so I assume I just need the e.13 PF30 cups and Im all set? E.13 is sold out so I have to get them elsewhere. Are they all the same? Do I need MTB specific ones?
An example being these from Universal ( http://www.universalcycles.com/shopping/product_details.php?id=48116&category=268 )
Are they the same as the ones e.13 sells even though they have different names?

2) Cable housing
I have a Saint derailer and shifter, but the cable housing is cut for my current frame. Is all cable housing the same size? Can I just buy the Jagwire Hyper Cable and Housing Kit and just use the casing? Or should I replace the cable too?

I think thats all for now...

Sounds defective.

I'll answer number 2 first because it is easy. Replace the cables and housing. Building a new bike with old cables or housing is a bit like taking a shower and putting on dirty underwear. Yes, the housing is a different length but you wouldn't want to do it anyway.

As for number one, call e13. I don't think they are the same based on the shoulder width but I would get an answer straight from the source. There is also the obvious difference with the sleeve. I drill drain holes in all my bottom bracket shells so I wouldn't really care but you might.

Get the second BB, it is the newest e*13 version. It threads together and has much more robust sealing on the bearings. Call up e*13 and get an eta on the new one.

The first link is for the old e*13 cups, which will work just fine, but the new ones are far superior.

Have fun, that bike rips!

ps- if you get the old cups just make sure you have all the spacers needed for 83mm bb shell. The cups are universal.

Put some pegs on it.

Duct tape, 14 condoms, and a full coating of Valtrex should cover the spread.

Pink AND green is the solution
