    Timely post. I’ve just got a crank removed from a brand new bike that cam with a brand new praxis bb30 to 24mm axle BB. Any good?

    quick Google was it fitted to a pf30 or a bb30 as it mentions a plastic tube to convert. oh and is it a road version?

    Couple of pictures in that link. I’ve got the plastic tube. No idea what version. I think the model number is visible in one of them.

    Yes soton based.

    Mine came off a MTB so MTB version. However the praxis works site suggests the difference in just 68mm or 73mm. Mines 73mm.

    I’ve bought a Rotor one, not fitted it yet but seems ok.

    I had one of the very first Praxis ones. Worked really well but the bearings aren’t sealed that great. Left it for around 6m and they’d seised.

    Ah will pass if it’s a mtb version. Looks like Merlin is pretty cheap for the rotor at £40 but currently out of stock.

    Hi Nixie, might be interested in your praxis. I’ll email you.
