Unsecure image, only https images allowed: http://www.commencal.com.au/META_SX_FRAME_20130.jpg?v=24knfs5cwa058oryou can see the bit I'm talking about in this picture. you can't run the plastic sleeve that comes with most BBs to keep water out, although it isn't needed anyway on the V3 as the BB shell has no holes in it.

I didn't need to cut the actual press fit part of my BB, just the flange that holds the central sleeve.

Still think those V3 frames are one of the best looking bikes ever made.

Nicely done. I'm kinda tempted with an SX in pink.

I would've had the 2014 frame instead of the 2015 if it came with a piggyback compatible swingarm.

Pink all the things

2013 neon yellow frame with upgraded chain stays to take a piggy back would be the best imo
