It's a fucking splined BB axle, RPM, you cunting fuckdick. Of course it's similar. Shitty bearings that give up the wanking ghost at the first sign of water with a pissy little bit of grime in.
External BBs rule, but until Campag/Shimano/Sugino do one for single ring chainsets, I'm going square taper. It's stiff enough for me, and I'll outspike any power you or that fat cunt can produce.
yapp, thats bullsacktitsmilk
sqweere tapah ain't stiff enough.
