Product Details

Overview & Technology

Convert PF30 frames to a reliable threaded BSA interface. The Truvativ PressFit30-to-BSA adapter is designed to bridge modern press-fit PF30 shells and traditional 24/37mm BSA threaded bottom brackets, giving riders access to the wide range of threaded BBs and cranksets. The adapter features precision-machined cups that align and support standard BSA cartridges inside a PF30 shell. Built to maintain bearing spacing and chainline, it reduces creaks and improves long-term serviceability compared to some straight press-fit solutions.

Key Features

Durable construction and exact tolerances: machined alloy cups with a corrosion-resistant finish provide firm seating and long-term stability inside the PF30 bore. The design preserves bearing preload and crankset alignment while letting you use any compatible BSA threaded bottom bracket. Available sizes: 68/73mm shell width and 83mm variant, covering the common PF30 shell widths. Lightweight and compact — the adapter adds minimal mass while unlocking the benefits of threaded BBs.

Fit & Compatibility

This Truvativ adapter is made specifically for frames with a PF30 (PressFit30) BB shell and supports both 68mm and 73mm shell widths in the 00.6415.049.010 variant and an 83mm option in 00.6415.049.020. Confirm your frame uses a PF30 shell (46mm/46.95mm bore diameter depending on manufacturer) before purchasing. Works with standard BSA / English-threaded (1.37 x 24 TPI) bottom brackets and most 24mm and 30mm spindle cranksets when paired with the appropriate BSA cartridge. Always match shell width and crank spindle diameter for correct chainline and bearing preload.

Who This Is For

Ideal for riders who want the reliability, serviceability, and bearing choices of a threaded BSA bottom bracket while retaining a PF30 frame. Perfect for road cyclists upgrading to sealed cartridge BBs, home mechanics avoiding press-fit bearing headaches, and shops standardizing parts stock. Also useful for builders converting older PF30 frames to modern crank standards or replacing worn press-fit bearings without reaming or sleeving the frame.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this adapter let me use any BSA bottom bracket?

Yes. The adapter converts a PF30 shell into a standard English-threaded (BSA) shell, so you can install most BSA/English threaded bottom brackets and cartridge units that match your crank spindle diameter.

How do I know whether I need the 68/73mm or 83mm variant?

Measure your frame's PF30 shell width. Most road frames use 68 or 73mm shells (choose the 68/73mm adapter). Some mountain or specialty frames have 83mm shells — pick the 83mm variant to match. When in doubt, check the frame spec or measure directly.

Is special tooling required to install the adapter?

Installation typically requires a press-fit tool or a shop press to seat the adapter cups squarely into the PF30 bore. After pressing, install the threaded BSA cartridge with a standard BB tool. Proper seating avoids creaks and ensures correct bearing preload.

Will the adapter change my chainline or Q-factor?

When installed correctly and paired with the appropriate BSA bottom bracket and crankset, chainline and Q-factor are preserved within expected tolerances. Always match crank spindle diameter and BB cup specifications to maintain factory chainline.

Can I use this adapter on carbon frames?

Yes — but extra care is required. Ensure the PF30 bore is clean and undamaged and press the cups with even force using a proper press tool. Avoid excessive force or improvised methods that could damage a carbon shell.

Does Truvativ provide warranty on this adapter?

Warranty coverage follows Truvativ's standard terms for parts. Keep your purchase receipt and check Truvativ's warranty policy for details about defects or manufacturing issues.

Buying Guide

When choosing a PF30-to-BSA adapter, confirm your frame uses a PF30 shell and measure the shell width — the most common options are 68/73mm and 83mm. Decide which BSA bottom bracket you want to run (sealed cartridge, BB30-to-BSA, etc.) and ensure spindle compatibility with your crankset. Consider installation: if you don’t have a press tool, plan on a bike shop installation to ensure square seating and correct torque. A quality adapter like the Truvativ unit reduces creaks and simplifies future maintenance compared with direct press-fit bearing solutions.
