Just fitted one today! Not done more than 20 yards on it. Its a ceramic, £35 from Hongkong, inc postage. Spins really well.
I will reserve judgement. It also, curiously, needed fitting with one spacer each side rather than two on the drive side, one on the other. It was nipped up too tight so I took a spacer off, problem solved. Not a worry as I run two chain rings so I think the chain line is still ok, if not better now.
A full ceramic for less than the price of a replacement bearing for my old Hope Ceramic BB... from the other side of the world...
Your link is where I got mine from. It arrived in a week.
A mate just ate through his in a few (dry and dusty) weeks. Currently being returned.
Not sure if it was the ceramic or stainless.
Mine was creaking like a b4stard within 20 dry miles. re-greased it, then the next ride was the Enduro 6 last weekend. Creaking like a b4stard again.
got a Hope one now.
mmmm.debatable then.
looks like i,ll give it a miss.
Cheers.....
