Tangentially, I have never had much luck with Wheels MFG bottom brackets. They never seemed to last as long on any of my bikes, even the PF ones as long as a Shimano ones would last.

I had a feeling it might be an alignment issue. The frame was pretty cheap. it is has separate sleeves bonded in.
If all I need to do until I get a new frame is to replace the bearings for $20 every 6-8months its not the worst thing. not ideal though.
I have had good luck with my other Wheels MFG bottom brackets. I install them for a lot of customers with good success.
