  • DUB does nothing that 386Evo wasn't already doing perfectly well

    This is what I don't get, particularly when SRAM was already making 386EVO compatible cranks. Do you know what marketing bullshit SRAM came up with to justify not simply adopting 386EVO?

    Still, another reason for the No More SRAM rule a.k.a. The Bauke Mollema principle. Not that another was really necessary.

  • DUB had to work on older and less progressive* threaded frames too, and squishing a 30mm axle in those is a bit of a ballache. So they dropped 1.1mm to make it easier :)

    * Santa Cruz love a BSA threaded BB.

    386Evo goes in 1.37"×68mm threaded shells, it's just like a big bore HT2/GXP/UT. There's plenty of room in the shell for a 30mm axle if you have outboard bearings.
