Waynio Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 i dot see why you have to make a hoohar of it mate. if you had of contacted the place you purchased it from like most other people would have done they will ask for it back for inspection and then either send you a replacement or fix the current1. as they have 4 bearings in i think or 2 and they are replaceable. so they are better than most isis b/b as they are pretty well serviceable. Waynio...................... the number for nse is 07000442232 get their address and send it back to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're heavier than UN72's. They're weaker than UN72's, due to 72's not having a stress point like on the 52's. They don't have a koss sticker on them. (Y) Try and get a replacement, or your money back. If they say no (which kocks have been known to many-a-time), give 'em hell. After that, get a Truvative Gigapipe, they are without doubt the best ISIS bb's you can buy. (Although a little heavier). :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technical Tom Posted September 1, 2005 Report Share Posted September 1, 2005 Im glad to hear that beau, so when do you think you will be ridin again? Oh yeah beau, oak thinks that your bottom bracket keeps screwing up because the thread in the bottom bracket have streched or you might have a dent in the the frame which has dented in to the bottom bracket which makes it really hard to put on. Speak to you soon, Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
