My SRAM GXP 68mm pf30 bottom bracket looks like it's at the end of its life! I'm thinking of upgrading it, any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

    Had a Wheels Manufacturing BB fitted to mine, the standard SRAM one only lasted one year and I was advised not to fit another SRAM as they don't last. All good so far 1 year later and I've done a lot of miles this year.

    Depends what you want to spend as you could buy a hope one.

    Or a praxis and be done with the press fit thing

    My Sram one only lasted a year too, which I was surprised at. Do the wheels manufacturing require a specialist tool to fit like the hope ones (I have the basic park tool bb tool)?
    Thanks for the advice.
