Has anyone used one of these? Any thoughts on quality compared to other press fit bearings?
I'm looking for a replacement for the Shimano press fit that came as standard on my 2009 zesty and i've come across these. they're cheaper than other options and the only thing stopping me is that they are stated as being 92mm so i was wondering whether they would be compatible with my SLX crankset - the race face web site states that they are compatible with MOST shimano but don't give any examples.

Most people seem to think they are worse than Shimano.0

yer raceface bb's are crap, i've had 2 and they've both been crap and needed replacing within a few months. shimano arent too bad tbh, hope are some of the best but not sure if they do a pressfit0

Opps, gonna throw a spanner in the works. I've got a RaceFace BB as part of my Evolve Crank. Replaced it once in 2 years and that was only to try and fix a creaking noise which turned out to be the bearings in my freehub.
I'm quite impressed with them, although I've not got a pressfit, I've got a screw in Race Face x-type race.Craig Rogers0 -
I have a raceface evolve DH crankset and BB, bought it used a year or so ago now and the BB is still smooth as silk0
