Mark W Posted November 1, 2010 Report Share Posted November 1, 2010 Trialtech Sport BBs have the best bearings out of any 'normal' style BB out there, if that's a concern? Pretty decent spindles too - Ali tested one for over a year and didn't break one... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Vandart Posted November 1, 2010 Report Share Posted November 1, 2010 I agree with Mark it is an excellent bb and a really good bargain it is only about half the price of a reset, only about 30g heavier and in my opinion stronger. Unfortunately it does not fit my Ashton so I had to settle for an FSA platinum pro, which is also a good bb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben John - Hynes Posted November 1, 2010 Report Share Posted November 1, 2010 I've had my Truvativ GigaPipe DH for 2.5 years now and it's still pretty much perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Vandart Posted November 1, 2010 Report Share Posted November 1, 2010 In the way that the offset of the cranks is way pissed to one side, which as the fussy pedantic twat that I am I cannot suffer. I did consider making some spacers and shit up to even it out but thought oh well, I'll just put it in my planet x, where it will be of more use to be honest.
