SRAM BB GXP Team Cups English Thread Including Bearings 73/68

I have had my mountain bike (2012 Niner Jet 9) for about 8 years and never touched the bottom bracket, so it was time. I pulled out the old one and it was filled with dirt and grime. Actually initially bought the wrong bottom bracket. I have Truvativ cranks, so had to return that one and buy this one that is the GXP style.. Fits my bike and my cranks...that’s important. Came with spacers on each side. Install was a snap. Bike is as good as new!

Good price for a BB that’s getting harder to find. Typical excellent SRAM quality.

I was considering getting a Chris King or Phil Wood bottom bracket, but then realized how stupid that was. Why spend 4-5 times the amount for something that I have never had a durability problem with. Yes I replace my BB every 2-3 years; but even so I can get 8-12 years of replacements for the cost of a Chris King or Phil Wood. (Besides the Chris King needs regular maintenance). This newer model from SRAM/TruVativ has a much improved appearance, duplicating the curved bearing cup look found on the Kings and Woods. Easily installed. Use a torque wrench to make sure you get it on tight enough. Install and forget. Repeat every 2-3 years as needed. I have 4 bikes, this BB is on all of them. (I ride 80 mile per week on my road bike, 20 miles per week on my singlespeed MTB, I rarely ride the remaining two)

Great BB for a great price. I have been fixing bikes through the pandemic and there are so many solid and high end cranksets that use GXP sized bottom brackets. I just decided to buy a brand new one here on Amazon because everyone else is either selling this used for the same price as a new one. And some of the used ones have bad bearings - save money - buy this new and be done with it.

Bought this to replace a creaky old bottom bracket on my Fuji and it made a world of difference. Much quieter, smoother ride, and much less effort to get up to speed.

I did have an issue with one of the bearing covers had fell off prior to installation. Once installed it was fine and is working great.

This is a perfect OEM drop in replacement for my original Gary Fisher MB. This version with English cups is a bit stiffer with an overall smooth feel. A strong GXP design for $30. My bike felt better than when I took it out of the bike shop for the first time. Consider replacing the chain, chain rings and derailuer pulleys when getting this, chances are you probably need them like I did. I originally just got a new chain and bottom bracket but needed to rebuild the whole drive train.

This is a great Bottom Bracket. It's not expensive but lasts well. Great quality at an amazing price.

Genuine SRAM product. Excellent SRAM quality

Gute Ware !

Perfecto calidad de sRAM como siempre bueno

Works fine

Cambié la transmisión de mi bicicleta a 1*11 y por ello tuve que cambiar el bottom bracket, lo compré para instalar un crank de la linea NX también de SRAM y todo quedo a la perfección, sin necesidad de ajustes especiales o adaptaciones.
