I took out the pedal threading on my Oem crank so it's time for a new one. The bike has the original crank and shimano press fit BB. I am wanting to go zee as I have been very happy with the other zee components I have.

The zee crank comes in 63/73 and 83 sizes. How do I tell which I need? I'm not sure what part of my crank to measure to figure it out.

Thanks.

THE 63/73 OR 83 is the width of your bottom bracket. So if you measure your BB shell on the bike these numbers are the width in MM.
I've never owned a bike with the press fit BB, but if the Zee is a standard threaded bottom bracket than you most likely cannot use those cranks on this bike as it takes the press fit.

According to this, the Zee crank is press fit, so should it be compatible?

If its a press fit and the correct width, it should fit. However might be prudent to do some research to make sure before u buy. You should figure out what u have now, bb width, spindle length ect and then u will know what u need.
