pista 06 bb size

I bought a pista (in a hurry) when my gt frame cracked last december during the tranisit strike. I was wondering if anybody knew the bb sizing/threading because I am looking forward to getting rid of these cheapy truvative components. The bianchi website says only "truvative power spline cartridge" regarding the bb. I check sheldon brown's bottom bracket size database and I'm not sure if it is up to date. thanks

The BB shell is yer standard 68mm English threaded, so you can pretty much replace it with anything.

The BB itself, I believe is a 108mm ISIS thingy.

[This is from memory - so hopefully its right]
