I am the owner of a 2006(ish) Gru TriLite which has a Shimano BC 1.37 68 bottom bracket in it. I am hoping to be able to install a bottom bracket that can accept a 30mm axle so that I can put a Rotor 2inpower crank based power meter on it.

Rotor offers different bottom brackets to adapt their crank to your bike and, from what my best guess is, their BSA30 bottom bracket is what I am looking for.

Hopefully someone smarter on bottom brackets than me can help me out here - Is the Shimano BC 1.37 a British threaded bottom bracket? Should the BSA30 work to install a 30mm axle crank on my bike?

Thanks

Posting this just in case anyone ever ends up searching for the same bottom bracket question - I ordered Rotor's BSA30 bottom brack and it was a direct swap in for the Shimano BC1.37. I am now able to use 30mm axle cranks.
