Scott Foil - Shimano to SRAM BB
I'm swapping (or hoping to swap) the crank on a 2016 Scott Foil - from Shimano to SRAM. The bike came with a press-fit SM-BB72-41. So I need to swap that for the SRAM equivalent... which I'm having difficulty identifying. The SRAM GPX BB86 "looks" right. But looks don't cut it with bearings.
Any guidance on what BB I need here?
Thanks!

Have you tried contacting Scott? When I upgrade my Ibis Hakka from praxis to shimano bb Ibis got back to me very quickly when I inquired with them.

I hadn't but just did - on your suggestion. My assumption was that a relatively big company wouldn't be much help on an "old" bike. But you're right - definitely worth asking.

I have good luck with Praxis, Ibis, Santa Cruz, Lightbicycle. I want to say they all responded with a day or two.
Giant has never responded to my question :/
