Stainless steel bearings will corrode less but they have a very low load capacity so you are more likely to be deform them under load.
It's easier with two, however me and lots of others have used one. At a certain point the friction will hold the other side tight.
yes it would

This is my second Hambini BB fitted into my Giant TCR road bike. I also have a BB386 fitted into my Gravel bike and both have been brilliant. The BBs fit well and perform flawlessly, with zero creaks and smooth rotation.
The Quality of engineering, materials and bearings used is excellent. They are expensive, but I’m a firm believer that you get what you pay for and in this case, I’m not disappointed. I won’t fit any other kind of BB into my bikes.
Keep up the entertaining YouTube videos Hambini.

I have wanted a Hambini BB for a long time and it’s only now that he has made this type available. I have a small obstruction in the frame and this prevented me from using his one piece designs. Just like the other reviews have said, this is another level of engineering. It is like holding a piece of artwork. I also ordered the tool that he recommends. The fit, finish and function are all first class.
Hambini is the engineer’s engineer. He doesn’t care for flashy graphics, his videos are subtly crafted comedy but be under no illusions he is a gifted engineer.
A man at the very top of his game, some might say expensive. Factor in the lack of hassle and the Top grade technical support, you are getting a bargain

Fast Delivery, Excellent Customer service and wow what a product. Slotted straight into my Giant frame with no problems. Much better than the OE bottom bracket.
I’m switching over my other bikes to Hambini BB’s too.

Easy to install. The overall fit and the tolerances of the threads seem much better than the Wheels Mfg BB that it replaced.

My new Hambini BB replaced my Shimano Ultegra BB86 bottom bracket and what a difference! The instructions were great and easy to read too. I’ve only gotten to ride it once because of the weather but it spins super smooth and “feels” stiffer probably because its made of metal and not plastic like the shimano one.
I am already looking forward to replacing my other BB with Hambini’s as I need too.

Purchased BB86 thread together for my GIANT 2019 Defy aspart of a major rebuild after a bad crash in2021,parts to complete rebuild became avalible just this pass spring. Wanted to upgrade bottom bracket as it was starting to creak at times. HAMBINI was the obveious choice.Ordered BB insallation tool as well,had already purchased BB go/nogo gauge BB86/BB92 to make sure I could fit this BB before purchasing it.I will be upgrading my GIANT 2021 TCR when the BB starts to fail.I can not thank HAMBINI enough for the great service,supper fast!

This is my second BB-86 thread together bottom bracket I have ordered from HAMBINI and this reveiw should be considered as a long term or follow up of my reveiw on Febuary 02-2024. Have about 2,500 miles on that BB with no complaints.As I stated in that reveiw that BB was for my GIANT DEFY , but it was such an improvment over the OE BB I did not wait for my GIANT TCR BB to start failing and ordered the second one. I will spec. any new bicycle I purchase with HAMBINI BB. RIDE THE BEST,RIDE HAMBINI. Worth the price!

Fantastic product. You can fee right away it is a fine piece of engineering.

Perfect fit for a Fondriest Dardo Frame. Could have gone with the one-piece version but it was out of stock – as so often with Hambini products. Installation was easy with the instructions provided.
Getting ahold of the recommended retaining compound and activator can be tricky depending on where you live. Would be great to have some recommendations for alternative products handy on the website. Also not sure why this is designed to require a proprietary installation tool instead of working with the more common Shimano tools.
First spin tests and rides on the indoor trainer feel very good already. I’ll see how it performs outdoors and after the bearings have properly bedded in. The reviews sure seem promising.
Shipping was not the fastest but that’s a Brexit issue and not a Hambini issue.

The bottom bracket, communication, and support was top notch. Highly recommend. Super high quality, extremely durable, quiet, and very easy to service/replace bearings.
