History: Last bike I had was a 1980 Schwinn Deluxe Varsity; I put well over 1500 miles on this bike. This bike did it all: road, cyclocross, gravel grinding and curb jumping. The bike was solid and virtually indestructible… Fast forward 30+ years and now I want to get back into biking.
I want to build a carbon cyclocross bike. I have not purchased the frameset but I have zeroed in on one (http://flyxii.com/en/products/flx-fr-603.html ).
Question: Which bottom bracket should I go with, BSA English Thread 68mm or BB30 and why? I am leaning towards the BSA 68mm because common tools can be used to service this assembly.
