The Fit/S&M BB for primo cranks is really good and easy to install, haven't had a problem with it since I got it and my frame last year

i can see that happening, primo cranks have a large spindle so that means a thinner bearing, which is weaker.

in my experences with Euro BBs is that it is not any eaiser to instale then an americain, probly eaiser to remove though. It was a pain in the ass geting one of the cups from a profile into my Villin frame, once it was in though it work nicly, its just the threads are so fine and they are at such tigth tolaces with the BB on the frame, the slights imperfection with screw it up.

thats cause american bb is twice the size of euro, 19mm euros are fine, but when u go to 22mm thats 3mm smaller the bearings have to fit into, which means smaller bearings and all that, so its easy to break, the bearings in euro 19 are the size of skateboard bearings almost... so just think of how small 22mm ones are... itd be very easy for them to break, with skateboards u got that huge wheel to take most of the shock
