Just wondering the Wheels Manufacturing BB30 to 24mm adapters to run Shimano cranks in BB30 BB's?

I've just bought some cheapy Saints for my carbon Demo and the boys at Spesh have told me to use these.

Just wondering how people have got on with them in actual use.

used some. and used some of the cheaper allow ones off ebay.

the alloy ones eventually creaked, and also got stuck pretty firmly on the inner race of the bearing.

The Wheels ones did creak a little, but I think it was more my installation and lack of cleaning, fitting them in a hurry that was to blame. They also are installed and removed much easier.

for un-creaky, you'll need one of the screw together BB's.

Using the Praxis BB to run Shimano cranks in a BB30 shell. 6 months and it's been perfect

I'm kind of stuck with the SRAM BB30 bottom brackets I think because the newer Demo's use a concentric BB. I've been told by Spesh UK to keep with the current BB and pop these in.

I use them on my S-Works Tarmac to run Shimano cranks. No problems here, other than the price of the things.
