Perfect fit by ryansog, 2 October 2013, 8 out of 9 people found this review helpful I was looking for a Press fit bottom bracket for my new road bike which had a 86.5mm width, and a 41mm opening, this bottom bracket fitted in perfectly and is compatible with my Hollowtech 2 Ultegra Cransket 6700, easy to install and no maintenance needed so very happy with my purchase I found this review helpful I did not find this review helpful

Good but quite expensive. Tricky to install. by Kevin301, 11 May 2017, 5 out of 5 people found this review helpful The center sleeve only grips lightly to either side by friction. Therefore extreme care needs to be taken during installation, to ensure that the sleeve meets the opposite cup. A mistake in alignment could result in the center sleeve being crushed by the 2 opposing bearing cups. Cons: tough to install quite expensive I found this review helpful I did not find this review helpful
