bb30 is a bottom bracket spec, shimano 7800 uses something that's called BSA or english (which is a thread-in type BB rather than a pressed in one).

There's the opposite threaded way (reverse-threaded which is ita / italian).

then there's PF30, BB86, BB92, BBRight, PF46(?).

if you want the most compatibility, go with BSA/english, it'll leave you with the least heartache / creaking.
