By the way, the BB30 standard looks like a pain to work with. But, there are several manufacturers for square taper bottom brackets. Seems like the easiest standard to me.
eeh no not really. there is small disc to adjust them. maybe 2 inches 5cm across. and you basically tighten this as fairly snug.

and if you are working with a half inch bit you have to tighten it as hard as you can by hand.
done. thats it.
