What Specialized has done this year is develop spacer/adapters that adapt Campy cranks to their BB's...which work much better than Campy's press in cups which work pretty awful. I believe you will see from Praxis moving forward a BB design that will adapt Campy cranks to BB/PF30. This will be very popular I believe. Campy cranks have a 25mm OD spindle and hence only a very slight change to adapt them using their BB.
Which would be great... if and when it does happen. The reason why I say that is because they've designed and released that new conversion bb, but only for shimano cranks. Their M35 bb does look promising, but only fits their line of 35mm cranks or shimano's with adapters. Considering the number of bb30 cranksets out in the market, I was surprised not seeing one designed specifically for bb30 cranks, but only for shimano?
Either way, still a fan of their chainrings as I'm still waiting for Praxis to release their chainrings for Campy cranksets.
*Knocks on wood* the campy pf30 cups I installed on my Merak have been problem free so far.
