    I have a 2019 Spark RC 900 Pro.

    Different class bike except for the poxy creaking BB, anyone recommend a replacement for the standard Shimano that it came with please?

    Do CK or Hope do something that fits and is decent?

    I know press fit are prone to creaking but it’s driving me mental.

    Thanks.

    There are many variations.

    wheels manufacturing do a thread together if you dont have the tools to press, or they do a press fit too.

    Most PF issues seem to be down to frames not being to spec (i.e. BB shells not aligned or not round / correct size). Your best bet is a screw together one (e.g. Wheels Manufacturing as above) or single piece one (e.g. Hambini custom – costly!).

    After my Shimano one seized it was a toss up between a Hope or Wheels Manufacturing screw together. The Hope won the day as it could be delivered sooner and have no problems or creaks since it was fitted. I bought the proper tool for the installation which made it a simple process.
