The BB on my MTB makes a ticking sound when warmed up, sounds similar to
a hot car engine after it is turned off. It has also develoved an ever

How long do you guys let that go before replacing?
Can anyone recommend a better quality BB for this that lasts longer than
5k miles and doesn't cost an arm and a leg?

Cost three times what the ES25 does and I've never had one fail.
