Until Hambini finishes his, what are the best options under $100?
Looking for replaceable bearings, lower drag than my ultegra BB to save those critical 2 watts, longer bearing life and if possible higher stiffness for my >3000 watt sprints..
And it needs to be black, or at least dark grey.
BBinfinite $80 (-$20 with the abandoned cart discount)
6805 25*37*7mm Steel ABEC-7 BBinfinite brand bearings
Aluminum sleeve – could it add to stiffness??
Threatened to sue Hambini, boo.
Only ships from the US for $15, so expect to pay customs + VAT.
Miche Supertype Evo Max $50
6805 25*37*7 mm steel SKF! bearings
Aluminum sleeve, designed for cyclocross (AL 7075-T6 cups)
Praxis Works $35
Enduro 2437 probably ABEC-3 steel 24*37*7 mm
Could upgrade to ABEC-5 or Angular contact bearings. Notice that the seal doesn’t go into the BB center due to its 1 mm narrower opening.
Plastic sleeve (T7075 alloy cups)
Hambini future superbb: At least £195, might not come in black.
Wheels Manufacturing disqualified for making theirs in light grey only.
