TriPeak PFTF BB30 Bottom Brackets

Does anyone have experience with TriPeak bottom brackets?. I have a 2021 Santana Journey and yesterday I just replaced the stokers BB for the second time. Seems like the BB only lasts about 3K miles. I have made sure the gates belt tension is much lower than manufacturer specification to minimize side loading. On my old Santana and Cannondale MT800 BB lasted over 20K+ miles.

I don't have experience with TriPeak bottom brackets, but I've had a lot of experience with different bearings over the years--and I've found that there's quite a range of quality. I don't know if they make bearing that will fit your bike, but I've always had good luck with Enduro Bearings: endurobearings.com.

Thank you for the link. Looks like they may have a direct replacement for the TriPeak BB that comes with life time warranty. It’s not cheap but less than the 2 I have had to replace.
