Apr 4, 2022 at 20:50 | comment | added | Weiwen Ng | Side note: I have a bike with a PF30 BB. Traditional PF30 BBs have the bearings inboard, inside the frame. The SRAM DUB PF30 seats the bearings outboard of the frame, and I would assume that this enables larger bearings to be used - which would mean increased bearing life all else equal. Unfortunately, the BB86 DUB BB doesn't appear to seat the bearings outboard, as far as I can tell. | |

Apr 4, 2022 at 14:40 | comment | added | Michael | I wouldn’t be too sure about the longevity issues with 4130 bearings either. I’m using 4130 bearings (I think the Rotor steel ones) and haven’t had any issues so far. They didn’t spin as freely when new and I’m not sure how much resistance they add under load but so far they are holding up nicely. | |
