    I've used it with XT cranks on my Kona Raijin for about a year and it's perfect so far.

    I think I'm going to pull the trigger on the Praxis BB conversion. I'll post a review after a few months of riding. Thanks everyone.

    I picked up a Parlee pf30 bb adapter with sealed bearings to mount my XT crank on my Jet 9 RDO at The Path. It's been working great for over 4 months now.

    I purchased the Praxis PF30/BB30 to Shimano BB adaptor and got it last week. I was originally planning on installing BB myself but decided to have RnR install it instead (didn't want to make any mistakes and didn't have the tools to remove the original PF30 BB and instructions called for 2 bb wrenches). I put on a Shimano XT crankset with a single NW chainring and have taken if for a few rides not and it's great!
