Just picked up a 2011 Demo 8 2. -Bottom Bracket is 83mm, but uses the new Press Fit Standard (BB30).Can I switch my stock bb for this... thanks!

I literally fit those cranks on my demo yesterday. I bought the demo second hand and the whole bb system was in place for the crank. You just need to remove the black tube that comes attached to the cranks. I'm not sure how it must be set up from a brand new frame though..

I too bought mine second hand, I was riding Saints on my Norco and love the stiffness and lightness of those cranks.
