Bottom Bracket upgrades
Discussion
I used a Wheels Manufacturing bb on a Parlee PF30 frame and it was faultless for the 5 years of use and still buttery smooth when I removed it. Its a great design if there are any imperfections in the bb alignment as the cups thread together so you're not reliant on the friction fit of the cups.
Not used a wheels manufacturing one, but used Token bb's for years with the same screw together fitment. Except I swap out the bearings for Enduro ones and they last for ages as well as providing a nice smooth rotation with the cranks.
More recently i bought a ZTTO one from Aliexpress with ceramic bearings for £15, wore the driveside bearing out in under 600 miles on my gravel bike, but again swapped the bearings to Enduro ones, and it is silky smooth again.
