When it comes to the new carbon frames, there are lots of other oddball options like press fit, etc. And I have no clue what is going on with fat bikes, they likely have some other standards too.
OK cool, that was mostly what I was wondering. This looks like it had a standard thread-in BB, just didn't know if the different technologies all used the same threading (or what was threaded v press fit), or if they were all special. I wouldn't object to just tossing in a UN55 and finding a suitable square taper crank, but I may just run with the Deore too since I already know it.
