Ive tried all the usual suspects Wiggle/Rutland/Evans/WoollyHatShop/SJS etc after CRC kindly emailled me to let me know their stock system works as well as their front end, grrr. Even ebay seems to pretty much only have the italian thread versions.
Anyone got any other suggestions? Anyone know if the bearings are individually replaceable (old BB is not in front of me)
halfords wiggle and CRC had stock last week...
yup, they're cheap at halfords at the moment for £21. I got two last week.

totally forgot about halfords. unfortunately the five nearest stores are out of stock!
I got bored of looking for one and bought a new shimano chainset. Was a rubbish BB system anyway. So long!
Hope BB with GXP conversion? Beyond the initial outlay the bearings are replaceable. I've never had an issue.
Token do a GXP option as well. I'd consider GXP BBs being out of stock as a sort of blessing in disguise tbh.
inclined to agree with the 'blessing in disguise' part, but its not my bike and my buddy cant stretch to a chainset presently
maybe i will price a crank/bb set, pack the bearings with grease and tell him to save a fiver a week.
I picked up mine on Ebay from High On Bikes
as long as the cranks still turn get out there.
Think I've got one in the spares box that came with a frame I bought. I use Shimano cranksets, so I'd be happy to sell it.
Yep - found it. It's in good nick, too.
nice one Dom, i found one on amazon which might arrive sometime next week
