Do Chris King BB come in ITA threading?

A quick google search turns up little to no info so my assumption is NO but I thought the collective knowledge here may know otherwise.

unfortunately not....i assume you want to install a GXP crank on a Pinarello
the only high end comparable alternative is Kogel which makes an ITA threaded BB adapter for 24mm cranks...
good luck

It'll be a Merckx MXL but same basic scenario. I like my headset, BB, and Hubs to match if possible - we all have our issues. Sounds like this one may get just a bland old black BB.

CK BB's do not come in italian thread because CK BB's are not compatible with campagnolo, and any bike with ITA thread should have - campagnolo.

This one is likely to get boring old 6700 stuff to go along with a boring old black BB until such time the budget allows for an upgrade.

If I love it as much as I hope that I do it may get some electronic goodies down the road not completely unlike yours. I am in a holding pattern for now. I bought it as a frame and am having Eric at Winter build a replacement fork as close to original specs as he can except threadless steerer which will allow me to run a cockpit I much prefer. To be honest though, BB threading has never been a point of concern on a bike. I would be curious to know why some think ITA threading is superior.

Cuz it’s ‘italian’, of course...

If you’d like to go the EPS route, email or PM and I’ll tell ya how I did it. Pretty simple.
