I just got the Race face atlas, and wanted to know if I can use the shimano bearings that I already have on there. I just want to bolt it on there without the new ones, is it that universal?
I don't think so. The race face sets are very aprticular about the width of the BB and how many spacers you use on each side. Shimano has a different mechanism for removing the play. I'd use the Race Face BB that came with the crank and follow the instructions carefully
