As per title really! My Hope BB bearings (MTB) have had it after 3 years of abuse and I've some Goldtec ones waiting to go in.

Also, what's your preference? Hope or Goldtec - consumer advice please!

Many thanks

Dave.

If they are the same size then yes, if not no.

I get all my bearings from Kaesae formerly of these parts - they are high quality INA, EZO etc and he packs them well with grease.

Hope bearings have a different ID from Std HT2 bearings, as they sit on the axle rather than top hats.
IIRC only hope do the correct bearings for their BB, although you can fit others (6802 2RS or 61802 2RS), you'll need to get some top hats to make up the difference.
