very tough bb, fit and forget. i love hucking over 50ft jumps and down 20ft drops and mine's not complained once
nothing as of yet, just needs tightening as you'd expect
best bb i've ever used. i normaly round them off or bend them by now so very impressed.
GET ONE!!

solid bottom bracket for a about a year, gives a wider stance, feels nice to ride
only good for about a year, mine still works after a year and 3 months but it crunches when I pedal
Good for a bout a year, i would recommend getting the one with bigger bearings because I think one of my bearing smashed hence the crunching noise, other than thats its an ok product.

Very strong, holds up well to 5 foot drops. Only had it 3 months and its going really well!
Need a special tool to reach torque setting wen fitting.
Buy it if you need something strong and durable. Not for for average X rider.

It is strong, cheap and simple to install.
It won't last for more than one year.
This is a good value for money BB. I am running my second now and I'll probably buy a third next year :)

very strong, bb-mounted chain device compatible, very smooth, rock hard, little flex, HUGE bearings
none yet
this bb is amazing, its strong, no flex, great bearings - theyre huge and external, no slip in the bolts, the only prob is you have to use howitzer cranks as it is a non-standard ISIS fitment. ive got some ruktions and theyre great! reali happy with it. its taken 6ft to flat concrete drops, no breakage. i do downhill often.
