[Closed] Non-SRAM replacement for Truvativ BB

Does one exist?

I'm sure superstarcomponents used to do one but they don't seem to do any BBs anymore.

I need a new external bb and before I place an order for the same item I thought I'd check to see if there are any other brands that do replacements for the SRAM BB, there aren't any others on wiggle or crc, or at least not at any decent price.

Looks like Gusset do one now, I'd get that- it might not be as good as the ext24, but if it is then it's very good.

Uberbike also do them. They use spacers (supplied) to get correct chain line.

You need to remove the tophat washer that sits between spider and crank arm to get the drive side spacer to fit correctly.

We went for the Hope stainless on my son's bike, don't forget the adaptor.
