Prime Threaded Bottom Bracket features

Quality

Quality is without doubt one of the most important factors that we consider when buying bikes, parts, accessories or clothing. As you’d imagine it’s especially important when buying Bottom Brackets. Let’s take at a look at the sort of things you can look at when trying to ascertain the quality of Prime Threaded Bottom Bracket.

The first thing is material. Looking at what Prime Threaded Bottom Bracket is made of will give you a really good idea of the quality overall. Take a look at the specs above and you should be able to see the material. It’s then up to you to decide if it meets your expectation.

Similarly you’ll also want to spend some time looking at the features too. Again the table above, listing the features will give you a really good overview. However you should think about the sort of features that you’d expect when buying new Bottom Brackets. It’s worth writing a list of the “must-have” features so that you don’t end up compromising and missing some important features, or alternatively end up buying an unnecessarily high specced product.

There’s also a lot of merit in checking out the brand of the product and looking at the various brands that are selling Bottom Brackets. Brands like Prime are of courses extremely well respected in the cycling community so you know you’re getting a fantastic product with them. But if you’re undecided on your product you should write up a list of brands that you’d be happy to buy. It’s a great way of filtering and narrowing down the number of products when you’re searching.

Next up you’ll want to think about the price and use that as a guide to set your expectations of the quality. If you’re buying the cheapest of the options in the Bottom Brackets category you should probably expect it to not be of as good quality as the most expensive. It sounds obvious of course. But this is where you can get a bit clever and use your combination of features, specs, materials and other factors to work together to get a really good quality product at the best price. We often draw up a list of “must-haves” and use these as filters when shopping online so that you’re only seeing products that meet your criteria. You can then sort by Price>Low to get the best deals.

Prime Threaded Bottom Bracket Reviews

Reading reviews is an amazing way of getting a good feel for a product without actually being able to try it or see it first.

There are two different types of reviews, and we also recommend reading both.

1. Expert reviews – In the cycle industry there are loads of really reliable trusted resources for expert reviews. For example if you’re looking to buy a new bike, BikeRadar Bike Reviews are great.

2. Customer reviews – these are probably your best resource for information. There’s no finances or influence involved, they’re purely just honest reviews from customers that have bought and used the product. The reason we love customer reviews so much is because no matter if their view is good or bad, there’s a very good chance that it will be honest and unbiased.

Our best advice is to head over to Chain Reaction Cycles and read the Prime Threaded Bottom Bracket reviews there.

Based on what we’ve seen in terms of reviews for Prime Threaded Bottom Bracket, it really does look like a great buy. So for the review score, we’ve scored it 9.5 out of 10. The average review score for all products in the Bottom Brackets category at Chain Reaction Cycles is 4.1 out of 5.

Owner reviews, as we say, are one of the most important pieces of research that we can do before we buy.

Precision made for durability and smoothness; Prime Bottom Brackets keep your bike running smoother for longer.Low Friction Bottom BracketDesigned so that the bearings rest on the axle of the crank, these BBs provide a straight load to the bearings, which means your BB will last longer. This also allows us to make the Prime Threaded BB with tighter tolerances, so it runs smoother with less friction. This means you’ll require less effort to make it up that hill or sprint for the line.To keep our Threaded BB running smoother for longer, we use special seals that keep water out of the bearings. We use multiple smaller seals, which reduces friction and provides a better barrier against moisture and dirt.
