Hi
i have a focus black hills MTB 2011 that I use for Commuting the distance I cover is around 27 miles a day .all year
and now its time to replace the bottom bracket should I go for the run of the mill bracket which may save a few penny's or because I cover a few miles go for an up market one ! (that is good for commuting if there is such one made)
please any info you could provide will be great cheers guys

    Unless you are planning on replacing the crankset as well, yes. It has to be the same size and fitment.
