Pros: Did not last long enough to figure out what I liked.

Cons: Started grinding within six weeks. I rode this on mainly dry land except for one spring crossing that was just about dried up because of the drought this summer. When crossing this spot it would splash a few spots of mud on my bike frame. So wet dirty conditions did not contribute to the failure of this part. I got a replacement under warrenty and have only ridden it about eight hours. I will give another review when I find out if the first part was just a bad one that missed quality control.

Recommendation: I would be read more reviews before trying this BB.
