Howdy,
My current bottom bracket (howitzer I believe) is on it's way out. I want something that will last and I don't mind paying a little extra for it. If it is just going to poop out on me after a couple of rides or a year or so though, I don't want to pay a lot for it. My problem is that my research shows that the truvativ crank/bottom bracket design is different than all of the other ISIS designs and will only accept a truvativ bottom bracket. Is this correct? Other research and experience shows that that Truvativ bearings don't work so well. Are there any other options out there that are made by a third party? The nicest "truvativ DH gigapipe" bb has terrible reviews as well. What should I buy/do?
Thanks,
-Alex
