Strengths:    Easy to fit
Light


Weaknesses:    None

Bottom Line:   
I bought this to replace the original Truvativ BB which was a bit slack and rumbly after 15 000km. First impressions were't great, it was lighter but very stiff & rough.
Fitting took 5 minutes with the special socket and it only required a very small adjustment of the front (triple) derailleur to get the changes back to normal.
Now after nearly 4 000km the BB is perfect. It spins very freely but has no slack at all.
An excellent product at a very reasonable price!
