Excellent product, after sales and support even before I bought it. It’s so much easier when you can talk to the guy that made it and not someone who doesn’t give a rat’s ass in CS. I got the local bike shop to install it and wasted $50 doing so. I could have done this myself it’s tooo easy. On the bike and it’s a dream. The internal sleeve does a job to line everything up. Put the crank in and away you go. Extremely well made, this is not a bike part, it’s a work of art. My mechanic said this was the best bottom bracket he had ever seen.

Installed on my custom T47 frame. I have not had any issues. Very well engineered and the customer service is excellent. It might seem expensive but you will not regret it.

Fantastic. Went straight in to my Enigma frame and paired it up with DA, it spins like crazy. The rigid center sleeve was a genius idea. I see this has come over from the BSA. I would buy another without a thought. Great Job Hambini
