Not clear is it: I meant that I'm getting at least twelve months use before I have to change the bearings.
I honestly doubt I've had to do it even every two years: I change the bearings when buying second-hand as a matter of course, so it's hard to remember when I changed what and for what reason.
Scilly.Suffolk-
OK , thanks. Despite what I've laid out above I would like to try UT, partly out of interest and also for a change of aesthetics as Ive always used ST.
A friend nearby has a torque wrench and an external bb tool he has offered to lend me so I may give it whirl . If I find its not durable enough for my situation I guess I can sell it on.

Thanks I assume when you say minimum you mean you're not replacing them more than once a year !
