Is that the way to go nowadays, or would you just stick with a typical $40 DUB BB offered by SRAM (my crankset is a SRAM Force E1 12-speed)? I can't shake the idea that basic BBs are more than adequate for everyone's needs, except for guys like Jonas Vingegaard.
There are effectively millions of pressfit bottom, brackets out there, a vast majority without any problems. Wait until you have an issue then proceed from there.
