Strengths: looks. inexpensive.
Weaknesses: SUCKS.
Bottom Line:
dont bother buying one of these. the non drive side bearing froze solid. i pulled the cartridge bearing out, removed the seals and sprayed the bearings with engine cleaner. then i brushed it with simple green. rinsed it, dryed it, greased it, reinstalled it. there is alot of drag when spinning the cranks. a totally cheesy bottom bracket. 1 chilli. better to buy a hope or chris king and never look back.
