^thanks!
The titanium stem arrived yesterday, aesthetically speaking a longer version would be better but that's unfortunately no option. I however might remove the spacer and probably have the stem sandblasted so it matches the seat post so that would improve things.
I also changed the tires (yes they just fit), disc brakes and cassette

Tools for the bottom bracket came in today so I started right away. Main conclusions:
- With the new bottom bracket installed the total width is around 90 mm.
- When both crank arms are installed on the 119mm axle it leaves 88 mm between the two.
- There was a 2.5 mm spacer on the axle I had to remove
- The wavy washer is 0.5 mm
You can do the math, it just fits.
Then the chainline obviously was very off, fixed that by turning around the chainring.

Not yet, I'm waiting for the shimano and ceramicspeed bottom bracket tools to arrive.
I did measure the space between the two crank cups, that's approx 88/89 mm with the 119 axle. And the width of the new bottom bracket bearing cups is around 11 mm p/side. So 68 mm bb + 11 + 11 = 90 mm so hopefully it fits.
Chainline probably will be a problem because the chainring has a large offset. I might turn the chainring around if thats possible or buy another chainring

I checked it on the Praxis website and saw indeed 28 mm for the non driveside.. the bottom bracket arrived today but it actually has 30 mm on both sides (however I had no patience at all so I already ordered a CeramicSpeed bb too, so either one will be returned)
^thanks all, bike indeed needs a new crankset but above all a newer bb type instead of the non cardridge ball bearing one, no idea what it's called but it's an old standard.

Today I finally put some lights on the Scott. First I had an ali front hub light that looked good but that was it, light output was quite poor. So went for a B+M IQ-X instead and a B+M Β΅ mini rear light. For the rear light I took the fender mount and modified it a bit. Also replaced the original bars and brake levers, nothing fancy but I like the wider bars and metal instead of plastic levers.
