I have a Origin 8 Adrenaline frame - Info on the frame: 65mm BB Drop?. I bought SRAM red components. SRAM Red carbon TT crankset 130bcd BB30. I'm completely new to bike building. I want to get all the parts together. not sure exactly what BB I need. BB30 but, not sure of sizing. Thanks for your help!
Bottom bracket drop is only the relationship of certain axis aspects of the bike, do not worry about this, but to read a bit about it and save me typing check out this link below. roll with the bb30 for your crankset, it will fit both standard shell width's

There are two kinds of people in the world, "Those who help themselves to people, and those who help people!"
either will work fine, the question would be if your frame is a press fit bb30 compatible frame

Thanks Joe - good reading. Unfortunately I got bad advice about the BB or no advice at all. According to the frame pic it is English BB. The Crank was a BB30/PF30, wrong combo all together. I needed a GXP crank for compatibility. I went to another website to find out.
