Shimano Deore Bottom Bracket Bottom Bracket
Product DescriptionLarge 22mm diameter hollow pipe billet axle reduces weight, increases strength and rigidity. An 8-spline joint between the bottom bracket axle and crank results in a more rigid, non-loosening crank assembly. Maintenance-free sealed cartridge keeps out dirt, mud, water and also allows bottom bracket to be installed quickly without adjustment.

from Salerno(near amalfi coast) Italy Date Reviewed: May 8, 2002 Strengths: Stiff,solid feeling,much better power transfer,smoother spinning under heavy cranking,improved crankarms/axle interface,crank bolts no more tend to loose. Weaknesses: Awful plastic cup on non-drive side(and SHIMANO is claiming on the web that the DEORE too specs an aluminium one)-the outer collar fitted around the axle on non-drive side looks not tightly fixed while the bb is still disassembled but once installed looks ok. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: Less than 1 month Similar Products Used: SHIMANO LX square taper,it was flexy and the crank bolts were always coming loose in the longtime despite of locktight ,but i didn't manage to snap it in two as other bikers did. Bike Setup: FSR XC comp disc 2000,MARZOCCHI MXR coil 80(real fork!),MRP X-link, DEORE octalink crankset,545 pedals,RITCHEY riserbars,DT onyx rear hub,HAYES HYDRAULICS(stock),OMEGABITE rear tyre(excellent),KENDA front tyre(very good).
