Praxis M30 THRU Bottom Bracket (30/30mm) – BB30/PF30 73mm MTB
SKU code: DSG-PX73-4101M30Thu
In Stock
A bottom bracket for cranks with a 30mm spindle that stays 30mm the whole way across, so both bearings are 30mm. It's the BB Praxis specifies for its Doon and Lyft cranks, and it suits several other brands' 30mm cranks too.
Highlights
- 30mm drive / 30mm non-drive sealed steel cartridge bearings
- For Praxis Doon and Lyft, Race Face/Easton Cinch, Rotor 3D+, SRAM 30mm (PF30/386EVO) and Cane Creek eeWings cranks
- BSA, T47 external, internal and asymmetric, BB30/PF30, BB86/90/92 and BBright versions
- Praxis supplies a 2mm dust cover each side as the base setup
- Spindle length check: 103mm or longer for road, 108mm or longer for MTB
Other brands' cranks
Praxis's base setup uses a 2mm dust cover on each side, but every crank brand sets up differently and some need extra spacers, so follow your crank maker's instructions. Before ordering, measure your spindle: Praxis asks for 103mm or longer on road cranks and 108mm or longer on MTB cranks.
Threaded, collet or press-fit
BSA and T47 versions thread in with a single Praxis M30 tool and are tightened to 40Nm. BB30/PF30 and BBright versions use Praxis's expanding collet and need a press plus two M30 tools. The BB86/90/92 version is a press-fit steel cup with an integrated bearing, fitted with a bearing press and removed with a bearing remover.

Compatibility & fit
For full-length 30mm spindles: Praxis Doon and Lyft, Race Face/Easton Cinch, Rotor 3D+, SRAM 30mm (PF30/386EVO) and Cane Creek eeWings cranks. Praxis M30 cranks (30/28mm) take the Praxis M30 bottom bracket instead, and 24mm, GXP and DUB spindles need a different BB. BBright is for road cranks, and BB90/92 are MTB shells. Collet versions need a shell clear of internal cable guides or screws. Fitting is a separate workshop service: the Tune Cycles workshop can check spindle length and spacers for your crank and fit the right version.
- For full-length 30mm crank spindles
- 30mm bearings on both sides
- Eight shell versions
- Forged and machined alloy cups on threaded and collet versions
- 2mm dust covers each side as base setup
