Buy a HOPE BB the same level of design and engineering but its British
few quid less as well
they will actually work out about the same price (if you order them from the states) but yeah agree on the buy british angle....
As for Hope's quality only problem i ever had was the design on their sport hubs, had the spindle fall out on me a number of times. was only held in by a small rubber grommit.. had pawls and springs fly out all over the place on the trailside... took me 2 hours to find them all and somehow through more luck than judgement get them all back in.... longest puncture i ever had.... Im sure they're better now though.... and ive always used their brakes - amazing bit of kit...
