I have a newer Colnago Master X Lite with a 9spd Dura Ace 25th Anniversary group but I just got an Campagnolo Potenza 11spd silver group that I want to try on this frame.

What bottom bracket do I need ?

I prefer one that is silver and as thin as possible.

Its this frame.....

U need a power torque italian threaded (Or whatever that frame uses)

The nice about the potenza crankset is that u wont need extractor for the crankset, be sure you have the allen wrench for that is like a 18 or a 20 mm allen tool, I had to buy a socket one when I installed the potenza cranks in my kids bike.

Yes...that is what you need in Italian thread. You can also download all user/install manuals on Campagnolo’s website.

I hate to say it, as a big campy fan, I think that bike looks perfect as is.

that said yes to what everyone said, power torque bb has 1 bearing pressed into it unlike UT where both bearings are in the cranks
