Has anyone got the new ish DUB bb ‘standard’ (Sram deny its a standard but it is a new axle size)? If so how long have you had it for? Problems?

The only thing I've heard (anecdotally chatting to the LBS) is that the bolts etc are torqued on crazy tight so getting the cranksoff can be an adventure.....

Sounds um, amazing. I have read on Sram or somewhere else that most dub bb’s have got s higher torque setting than gxp. I do have a car torque wrench with a fairly long lever though so should be ok.....as long as the bolt doesn’t round out!

I used a 3 foot bar to undo an aeffect gxp crankset.... even tighter!!!. bloody hell that must be tight!

Much easier with Shimano.

I like the Sram steel x sync chainrings though.
