Tough, Cheap, and Perfect for a Workhorse Bike
I use the SHIMANO Square Type Bottom Bracket (BSA 68MM, Spindle 122.5MM) on my daily work bike — the kind that gets locked up outside in all weather, 365 days a year. Rain, snow, sun — you name it, this bike sees it, and this bottom bracket has proven to be the perfect match for that kind of abuse. It’s not fancy, but that’s exactly what I want. It’s sealed, so it keeps the worst of the elements out, and when it finally starts to feel knotchy or grindy after a couple of years (which is totally fair given the conditions), it’s cheap and easy to swap out. For the price, I don’t mind replacing it every two years — it beats spending time and money trying to overhaul something more expensive that’s going to get trashed by weather anyway. The 122.5mm spindle gives good chainline spacing for my setup, and the install is straightforward with a basic bottom bracket tool. Once it’s in, I don’t think about it again for a long time — exactly how a commuter part should be. If you’ve got a beater or work bike living outside like mine, this bottom bracket is a no-brainer: reliable, low-maintenance, and cost-effective to replace when the time comes.

Good valu, installation instructions lacking
Good price and quality. Removal of the old bottom bracket was a challenging experience and required special tools. Online instructions were not easy to find and were not useful for replacement installation. After figuring out mostly on my own which side goes where, the installation of the new Shimano bottom bracket was easy.
