Hey WW!

Anyone try converting their PF30 frames with a BSA Threaded conversion? I came across this while googling thread together PF30 options..

Disintegrated know this existed, basically its 2 cups pressed in that has BSA threads, then tou thread in a BSA BB.. There are alos single sleeve options as well..

Anyone try it, like it, hate it? Which product did you use?

I thought about using the FSA one, but decided it was too much extra weight (70 g). In any case, the PF30 frame I ordered (2018 Izalco Max) didn't get delivered due to Brexit paperwork issues, and I ended up with a BB86 frame instead (TCR SL).

I'm using FSA one on my winter bike. I wanted to have BSA on winter bike for easy maintenance and bottom bracket changes. Installed it using loctite with activator.
Since I installed I havent noticed it is there...which is a good thing.
Interesting fact is that carbon frame I have installed it into already has alu bb shell. Frameset in my colorway has PF30, but other colorways had BSA from the factory. My colorway was for pro team, so they made it "more pro" with PF30 lol
