has anyone had an issue where the axle only comes partially out? My one stops at the end and I can't see what is stopping it from coming out. It's been out before.. just stopped coming out after a few weeks of riding
I gave up on Sram GXP standard BBs, they don’t last long. The design is not great having different Bearing cartridges on each side and having a wave washer. I would advise for a GXP crank, buy a standard hope BB and get the hope GXP adapter and fit. You get rid of the wave washer, have a smoother and sealed BB as well as having the same force applied to both BB bearing cartridges which are the same spec on each side. This is how you make GXP a good system 😏😏🙂🙂
Very helpful - helped give me the confidence to do the job myself. 👍👍
Just need a Park Tool wood block now and I’m ready to go.
Thanks. Great step-by-step tutorial
excellent as usual, very helpful.
Great tutorial. I appreciate you putting it together.
Exactly what I needed. Thank you.
do you push that allen head all the way into the crank before removing it?
Thank you

What if the extractor bolt is gone
want to ask for the SRAM RIVAL spindle diameter size? is it 24mm or 28.9mm
24/22mm. One side is smaller than the other! GXP axle.
can the rival sram crank use the shimano HT2 bb?
No!

I just use a standard 24mm bb with shim, it been working fine on different bike with the same crank over the year for me
it still spin, I would have run that bearing for another 5k....
I would run these bearings for many more miles. You should hear how badly my gxp bb bearings sounds that's nothing compare to these.
