Specialized Tarmac
#1
Hello all,

I was looking to replace the BB on my 2010 Specialized Tarmac. I found some description on the BB that reads BC1.37x24. All I know is its a BB30 external bearing type. I wanted to install a ceramic BB from first components but not sure what size to order. Going to pair it up a Shimano Ultegra 6700 Crank. Any help would be great.
