Default Bottom Bracket

Coming soon to a workbench near you:


Custom made full stainless steel bearings (made by INA)
Machined aluminium cups. Sealed with a labyrinth seal like on the hub rotor bodies and the aluminum center tube is sealed with o-rings.
Stainless steel version, and full ceramic version.

I was checking one out a Jenson today. Very cool. I think it was something like $125.

Stainless bearings? Sold! Next time my bearings rust up, I'll be looking into these!

Yes on all my bikes because I run compact cranksets. Never had one fail, the one on my Niner has out lived 3 frames. The Path normally has them in stock.

And it comes in Sueperman colors! All I need now is the cape and I'll be able to ride at light speed.
