    Never managed to trash a BB – not square taper, not HTII

    HOW? Are you floaty light on the pedals ?
    HT11 – dont last as long even with maintenance. Granted I would get about 5-10,000 miles from square taper but not for ever. Better sealed though still tempted to go back.

    well, oddly enough, i went through more sq taper BBs, and i'm still on my original HT11 BB on both my current bikes, and i ride them consistently more

    bill oddie, you need to get yourself a hanger banger, a little bracket that screws onto the end of your rear QR and acts as a reinforcing device for your mech hanger. Madison and On-One do them.

    I got a banger hanger and it's not all that. 2 bustified drop-outs and a badly deformed drop-out holdy thing. (not good with technical terms)

    I'd prefer it if they made the replaceable drop-outs stronger.
