The idea is to switch to the shimano/hollowtech technology using a BB30-24 adaptor. How much should that help?
Are there other options I should consider?
I was planning on the same thing for my cross bike, which has a bb30. Until I found 4 sets of bearings at Performance at their final clearance for about $6 each. At Dy, I can afford to keep replacing every year for a few more years.
