deanbean Posted August 14, 2014 Posted August 14, 2014 Luckily the weekend is around the corner so I'll have some time to figure it out. I know the creaks happen when I stand and pedal or while climbing. Definitely coming from the BB/crank area.. Went through a few reviews about the FSA MegaExo BB...Doesn't seam like the best there is..Lots of people say it allows mud and water in causing the bearings to fail etc..Also check your pedal threads, and headset too. I had a similar creak that eventually dissapeared when I took my headset bearings out and greased the outside of the bearings and the bearing seats.
Erroli8a8 Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 I purchased and installed the PF BB 41. I then took it for a quick round the block spin. eish something is off, it feels like I am pedaling to the right. after a quick call and chat to Stephen it turns out that NDS and DS printed on the shell of the BB mean something. pull the BB out and turn it around and you know what 100% perfect. thank to Stephen for his help and response to a PM.
flat29 Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 Mine is being installed as we speak - ceramic PF30 to 24mm converter BB. Stephen is one passionate and knowledgeable chap! Great to see REAL south african made stuff rather than the "design local but make in Taiwan" stuff. Given the products and man behind the products I will support Quickrock 100% - there is the small matter of actually using the BB of course but after seeing the factory and the product I have few doubts. Will feedback later... Any feedback for us yet? I am also looking at replacing my Pf 30 with one of these
duringd Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 Unfortunately I have to report that I have now had to replace my QuickRock BB again, 3rd one. This one, a new design and all, lasted 900km and 6 weeks. Not a happy pup. Did message Stephen but no reply, so there..... Back to the tried and tested.
Eldron Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 Any feedback for us yet? I am also looking at replacing my Pf 30 with one of these So far so good. Very happy with my choice after about 2,000km. Mankele this weekend so it's first "proper test" - will let you know after that. In other news - I have a new PF30 anti squeak strategy.... Carbon assembly compound on the BB and normal grease in the frame. I had 15 rides before squeak returned - new record. They should burn whoever invented PF30/BB30/BB90 or any other BB format that uses the frame as a wear surface. Dumbest idea ever.
