I’ve been riding a PF30 BB since 2016 in all weather over thousands of miles and haven’t had a single creak.
I will admit I do prefer a threaded BB, but I also think it’s an overstated issue.
Then again, my frame is steel and I run a pretty high end Wheels Mfg BB. Maybe I’m insulated by that.
- switchbak 3y agoI had the dreaded creak. Installed a Wheels Mfg threaded insert BB thing - problem solved on that old bike. Never had much of an issue with the threaded ones otherwise over almost 30 years of riding. There's lots of other ways to address PF issues, I think it's just that consumers know about the issues and prefer to avoid them if possible.
