Any good?
Are they GXP bottom bracket only or shimano compatible?
Yep, they're nice. GXP or Hope with an adaptor though.
Mine are fine- not especially light either mind, they're a little heavier than my XTRs. And yep, bloody stupid BB.
Well they've got to be lighter than a square taper deore one!
But an eBay special for 60 quid is worth a bit of a gamble...
So what BB to order then?
Sub £30 GXP one?
Or £75 hope Steel one plus hope adapters?
AAAAAAAAAAAND
Chainring for 1x10.
Hope, middleburn or renthal?
Or a.n.other?
Mine is on a bike that won't get ridden that much, so it's got Truvativ in. If you ride it regularily, that's madness, get a Hope, it'll pay for itself. Not sure if there's any third ways- you can't fit the Hope adaptors into a Shimano BB, frinstance.
Chainring- doesn't really matter, they're much of a muchness. Get one you like the look of 😉 I like E13 and Renthal but that's just one of those bollocksy uninformed purchasing decisions you make based on nothing at all.
