Gandalf the Yellow Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 hello im planning a weight saving project on my 04 giant trials team. its currently got the box standard truvativ dh bb and hussefelt trials cranks :P . too heavy and im thinking of getting rid of them. raceface evolve FR bb im thinking of - how good are they and would i be better off getting the other versions? (XC/DH) im thinking about middleburns or raceface turbines. which are better?? bearing in mind i can get the turbines half the price of the middleburns at where i work and i don't really want to spend £140ish on the ISIS middleburn. i understand why everyone has a pair of middleburns, but comparing quality/price i'd like to know which 1 would you choose. thanks for your help. steve :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JIX Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 I would say normal middleburn squares and a shimano BB. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomm Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 I would say normal middleburn squares and a shimano BB. :P ← Yep, square's just as good. The only thing is you need to keep an eye on the bolts, just in case. (If you want a 68x118 FSA Platinum BB for cheap, let me know :P ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
