Hi all,
So the spec sheet says :
Cranks - Custom SRAM S-1250, 7050 alloy arms, 10-speed AM double, PF30 spindle, 36/22
With
Bottom Bracket SRAM, PF30, OS press-in bearings, sealed cartridge.
Anyone provide me with a linky to a replacement ..
New to this PF business and don't know which to get as a direct replacement.
Thanks muchly

I went for the hope option and changed to a 1* setup at the same time using a Shimano xt crank that I already had with a 24mm NOT the standard 30mm axle. There's a version of the Hope BB that is 30mm axle friendly. I also put a sunrace cassette on at the same time.
The SRAM crank is insanely heavy iirc. Hence the switch along to the nice spare XT ones.
PF30 bottom brackets are generally compatible with each other. So you could get this

or this, if you want a nice piece of engineering

Or this

The Sram BBs are not very good . For a little more money you could go for a wheels manufacturing PF 30 BB that is more durable and has replaceable bearings , rather than having to replace the whole thing when it wears out .
