Shimano has essentially re-engineered their product for reasons I can't figure out. They have fixed what was not broken and broke it. The Tange NDS cap can be tightened in as far as there are threads in the shell. It is adjustable in any number of ways. i think for the additional $4 it's a better choice. And you're right, the Tange does exude quality. I hope Shimano is reading this and gets back on track with their BBs.
