Can anyone recommend a 83×128 ISIS BB for my new frame and Middleburns?

TIA.

Christ, what frame's that!?

I can't recommend an ISIS b/b at all sadly! SKF would get my vote, but I'm almost certain they didn't come in that size.

sounds like a glory or a demo

FSA and truvativ are the only ones are they not IIRC ? and if i know fishers the truvativ one will be out of stock !

My new DH race steed arriving soon 8)

BTW njee20, (off topic and XC related) would a NU seatpost work with a Arione CX carbon railed seat as the rails aren't circular?

And where is the best place to buy a NU? My WCS deal fell through.

Doesn't someone do a ISIS axle with HTII cups and bearings in that sort of size?

Not sure 😕

Pretty sure SKF make bearings you could retro fit. Ebay is full of not-quite-original ones though.

The only one I can find is the FSA Platinum Pro DH ISIS Bottom Bracket.

I use the same BB on my Canfield Jedi (with Middleburn cranks too) and I can highly recommend one. No problems whatsoever.

Is that Banshee frame an MK II model?

Yep, just waiting for the shipment now, can't wait to take it to Spain 8)

Taking it back OT, YGM re NU. That's like some sort of code!

Bream – I never managed to get a FSA Platinum pro DH ISIS BB to last more than a day before developing play. (that was in 100mm shell guise tho) – ended up just running the bottom bracket with play, it eventually developed into shit loads of play (but they never actually disintegrated/seized).

If at all possible I'd completely avoid ISIS for a DH bike (even if it was as ugly as that ^^). 😛

It's the same as I'm having to run on my airnimal – this one lasted about 11 months / 5000 odd miles and it's now creaky with a fair bit of play. Not sure whether I'm going to get a like-for-like replacement again or look at other options (which are going to be limited)

So, if I open this up to include square taper BBs, is the some better options?
