The cartridge bearing on my fatbike lasted 550 miles on the beach. The GXP BB bearings (sealed type) have lasted 1500 beach miles and are going strong (Quando hubs too). By beach I mean salt water beach of blacks sands with magnetite, titanium, iron, quartz, silica, and various granites and basalts ground to a lapidary paste.
