I used a sram ita bb as well, for more than 15k km. The occasional wet ride, of course. Bearings were absolutely screwed and I did push them beyond what I should've. But fortunately, the only thing you ruin are the bearings and cups. Which are easily replaced if you mamage to get a hold of a new pare.
@BondMax cbear also makes a gxp ita bb, but 💸Edit:forgot to mention, fabulous fondriest!!
Thanks! I used a SRAM one, for my sins. It'll probably only be ridden in dry-ish weather though so hopefully I can get away with it for a while
Edit to add they're gxp cranks so it's an Italian threaded bb.
