Bike Component/Compatibility Question
 

Need advice on a new BB for my FSA Gossamer Black Crankset. I've seen numerous postings on the BB failing after only a few months (loud creaking followed by harsh grinding) and now I'm experiencing the same thing. I'm looking at either the Dura Ace BB or the SRAM Ceramic BB with the SRAM getting a ton of rave reviews. Not sure however, if the SRAM BB will be compatible with my FSA Crankset. If the SRAM is not compatible, is the SRAM Ceramic actually better than the Dura Ace? First year triathloning and biking and still learning, so any help is much appreciated.

Bike is a 2009 FELT B2 with Dura Ace de-raileurers and FSA Gossamer Black TT Crankset

sram will not work.
shimano will.

I'm interested in why you have a FSA gossamer crankset when the derailers are DA.

SRAM BB won't fit. Shimano and FSA share the same BB dimensions.

Thanks for the response, I'm going with the Dura Ace BB now and will upgrade the crankset later. Reason for the combination now is that is how Felt set up the 2009 B2. Their next bike up is the B2 TT/TTR and has all SRAM Red, then the B2 Pro has all Dura Ace. The standard B2 ($3800) was already more than I could afford at the time so I'm slowly upgrading a few parts. This is really the only area where I scratched my head on the setup, the rest is very good and the bike rides/handles like a dream. Thanks again, I can now purchase with confidence it will work, much appreciated.
