WHEELS Mfg T47 Outboard BB
Best durable upgrade for smooth and reliable crank performance.
This is the definitive cure for the persistent creaking that plagues press-fit frames. By opting for a threaded interface, you trade the slight weight penalty of machined aluminum for a rock-solid, silent drivetrain that is infinitely easier to service when the bearings eventually wear out.
