Give me some opinions on c bear osbb brackets. I have standard ceramicspeed bb30 in my sworks now but doesnt spin very good. I was looking for an option without adapters and spacers (shimano ultegra crank).

I have cbear on both my bikes and recommend highly. One of them is the BB30 bracket for a GXP crank on an S-Works Tarmac.

I am currently using a Hawk Racing BB and am impressed with it. Previous was Kogel, CeramicSpeed, OE SRAM, OE Shimano. I had issues with the Kogel not fitting as advertised with a GXP crank but it was ok with a Shimano crank.

CeramicSpeed... well.. not sure it’s worth the premium.

Around how much revolutions does it spin when you push it gently?

Have not tried but no issues on spinning to date (under 100 km only so far on that bike). Spins easier than Praxis Works BB30 to GXP all in one adapter bracket that it replaced (at a 50 g weight savings too.). Over 2000k trouble free kilometers on my other cbear bike, which is BSA threaded.
