    As above, anyone know where i can find replacements? Another brand is fine as long as it definitely fits

    I think I last got some from uberbike but I couldn’t swear if I put them in an uberbike or gusset bb

    It’s bollocks isn’t it? A plastic spacer being the maintenance barrier! Intentional hurdles, **** and they know it!

    I’ve heard the raceface ones from CRC work fine and there 99p each. Could you just get bearings that fit to the correct spindle diameter (24mm) if you were going to change them and eliminate the need for the tophats?

    Token ones fit too. You could swap to a 24mm id bearing, but the tophat’s a better approach, protects the crank.

    The original top hats need to be pretty well destroyed before they stop working, mind… I have one in my commuter that’s got bits missing and is all cracked to buggery.

    What do the token bb’s do to the crank?
    Im using some 9 year old hones on a token bb thats a couple of years old with no issues yet.
