I have a BB30 bb on my bike. As predicted, it has gone after only 8 months. Can I replace just the bearings like I could on good old external bb cups or do I have to give SRAM half my life savings to replace the whole thing?

Bloody "progress"...

If you can get bearings out OK without damaging the circlips then get the bearings only/another brand (AFAIK).

Pre-greasing is your friend.

Oh and apparently you should be grateful it wasn't wailing like a tomcat straddling a hot exhaust pipe within 100 yds of ownership 😛
