    Why is it an issue with Whyte bikes? Whyte only fitted the part, surely it should be SRAM who are telling you that it is wear and tear. Ask your LBS to send it to SRAM and see if they will warranty. In my experience, they usually will

    Thanks for the advice - I e-mailed SRAM UK and they did warranty it -

    I got my money back from the LBS.

    A lot of people won't bother and just get a new one so bet there laughing all the way to the bank.
  • Companies use PF bottom brackets as it is a cost saving when manufacturing the frame.
