Bottom Line:
this bb might be light but the cups creaked,the axel/crank interface was too tight,the bearings were so notchy you could actually count the number of bearings by feel! absolutely awful.then after about 6 months,the bearings came off whilst fitting.went straight in bin.most expensive truvative bb tool ever(came supplied with bb)
