Replacing my BB86 bottom bracket with Chris King bottom bracket

Hello,

My 2015 Salsa Warbird has BB86 bottom bracket in its specs. I am preparing for swapping my drive train sometimes this fall. I have always wanted to have a Chris King bottom bracket with bling navy blue ends and I was wondering if I could get help here to guide me which\Chris King bottom bracket will fit into that BB86 frame cavity. Web search says : the inside diameter of the BB shell: 41mm. ... I still don't know what to pick when shopping for a CK bb on the internet.

Thanks for your help.:-)

well, I did email them and the response was:

I am sorry to say we no longer make a bottom bracket that will fit your frame.
