So they stay in place without lockrings by design - the LBS mechanic seemed dubious...

Only the adjustable bb's need a lockring as a fair amount of the threads are protruding the rotation of the cranks with a stiff bearing could work em out the non drive side as there is no shoulder on the drive side to prevent the cup from threading further in.
I have seen this happen and a chainring grind into the chainstay and destroy a frame!

Re: .
The cups should lock against the internal sleeve of the BB.

Only 117 length and above include lockrings, narrower one's do not.
Shimano BB do not use lockrings
It says it right there

Got one on my Parkpre Pro Image, no lock rings. Needs a healthy dose of Locktite to keep it in place.
