I used Ofmega crank and hubs for two years. The bottom bracket died after about 900 miles. Both cups were scored. I replaced it with Suntour. The crank itself is very soft. Under hard acceleration it bent so much that the large chainring would rub on both sides of the front derailleur on the same revolution. (This is not frame flex, I'm sure) I am replacing this junk. I am very unhappy with Ofmega and will never buy anything with that name on it again. I have no complaints about the hubs. An axle broke in Ireland, but I'm not suprised about that - the roads are terrible. I am switching to Specialized. I HOPE they are better. Joel Swank Tektronix, Redmond, Oregon
