I recently got Truvativ Firex cranks and am looking for a compatible bottom bracket. I've read the reviews for the Giga Pipe Team BB; the consensus seems to be that these are rubbish. There's a lot of reviews of the BB seizing and problems with tightening the crank arms. Anyway, can anyone recommend a good compatible BB.

What sort of fitting is it? Is it the gigapipe version or the ISIS? (Not familiar with truvativ) If gigapipe, try the raceface bearings or the shimano ones as I believe they are compatible.

Thanks for the reply davebee.
They're the gigapipe version. I'll check out the raceface or shimano ones. -
Here's a link to the manual...
