gummibear Posted May 18, 2016 Posted May 18, 2016 More money to be made for the cycling industry with PF30Also cheaper to manufacture when there's no alu shell to be fitted.
CAAD4 Posted May 18, 2016 Posted May 18, 2016 Just get yourself a Praxis BB and be done with it ..... Best thing I've ever bought for my CannondaleSo when it comes time to service or replace the Praxis, do you simply replace bearings? Like this option.
gummibear Posted May 18, 2016 Posted May 18, 2016 So when it comes time to service or replace the Praxis, do you simply replace bearings? Like this option.Yup...Endura MR-2437 and i think Hope will fit to.
CAAD4 Posted May 18, 2016 Posted May 18, 2016 Yup...Endura MR-2437 and i think Hope will fit to.Like.
gummibear Posted May 18, 2016 Posted May 18, 2016 Like.Its a 24X37X7mm bearing and SKF also make them.
CAAD4 Posted May 18, 2016 Posted May 18, 2016 OK so then all things going well, the Praxis could last for many years to come.
gummibear Posted May 18, 2016 Posted May 18, 2016 OK so then all things going well, the Praxis could last for many years to come.Original bearings are and only last a few 1000 km.
LouisS Posted May 18, 2016 Posted May 18, 2016 Serviceability, threaded bb's need less tooling and time to maintain / service. Also imo pressfit BB's tend to last not as long as their threaded equivalent. Whether that is because its easier to maintain i can't really say.http://quickrock.co.za/This was my answer to a serviceable pressfit BB.
Eldron Posted May 18, 2016 Posted May 18, 2016 So when it comes time to service or replace the Praxis, do you simply replace bearings? Like this option. Yup. Wheels Manufacturing also make a really nice one that has replaceable bearings. You can get "adaptor" BBs too...
gummibear Posted May 18, 2016 Posted May 18, 2016 Yup. Wheels Manufacturing also make a really nice one that has replaceable bearings. You can get "adaptor" BBs too...I have a WM BB30 on my mtb and it's 3,5 years old and been ridden in mud,snow and sea sand and still in great shape.
The expat cyclist Posted May 19, 2016 Posted May 19, 2016 I love the way the words "new standard" is used...What standard?There is no such thing in cycling!
NotSoBigBen Posted May 19, 2016 Posted May 19, 2016 Reminds of a report so many many years ago int the IT industry entitled 'Standardised chaos in RS-232 serial interface'
VicanZA Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 Ok where do I get a praxis? Last PF BB lasted less than 250km on my Vipa.
