I have a 2007 Giant Trance 3. It has Truative fiveD Cranks and a Truative Powerspline bottom bracket which has developed play and is feeling rough. Question is it the same as ISIS can I replace it with any ISIS bottom bracket of the correct size and any recommendations as to which one. (its only lasted a year!)
Thanks

There are a few decent isis bb, however the solution, as often is the case, is to just throw money at it.
You're looking at about £75-£100 for a decent isis bb. I'd just buy some SLX or Deore HTII cranks.0 -
It is not the same as ISIS - Powerspline has a different pattern.0

One year out of a powerspline is great.
As Sonic says it is NOT ISIS."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

i have the same bike, that BB sucks just like an ISIS, used to always come loose and make funny sounds.
hollowtech is much better!Dont look at it-ride it! they are tools not f*cking ornaments

shame you did not spot it in your first reply."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."
