BB compatibility - BB7420 vs Rival?
I have a '10 Specialized Tricross Triple - currently runs the stock Shimano 2300 groupset, which includes a BB-7420 bottom bracket (i believe its a cartridge type).
Next spring, I'm planning on overhauling to a complete Rival groupset, which includes a GXP BB.
Is this a straight bolt on affair or am I going to have compatibility issues?

IIRC - that would be the press in BB standard - what something like BB86(?) - SRAM/Truvativ make a GXP compatible press in BB for that standard.
