Hi, stupid question probably?!

I have a truvativ firex chainset with external BB. The BB is knackered and I need a new one - do I have to get truvativ or are any others compatible?

Cheers:)

There are a couple of options if you don't want another Truvativ one.

Superstar components have two available (£27 non-ceramic bearings, £50 ceramic bearings).

You could also go for a Hope one (around £60 non-ceramic & you will need an adaptor for the GXP - around £9)

Finally there is a Chris King one (around £100 & you will need an adaptor - around £35).

I've run the standard Truvativ ones for a few years now & usually manage to pick them up for around £20. They typically last me around 9 - 15 months - I'm thinking about switching to a Chris King next time for the 5 year warranty.
