Of course, 1,000 miles per year /on dirt and mud/ isn't quite the same thing as 1,000 miles per year on paved roads.

You might get some longevity, but if you are really only riding in the
1000 miles a year, the cheapest shimano cartridge would be the way to
go.    You can get a UN-55 for less than $25.

Why are more expensive bottom brackets more expensive? What do you gain? Is
it just durability? Or is there any sort of performance gain (ie, does it
roll smoother, faster, etc)?

I've worked on most bike parts now minus the bottom bracket and headset.
About to change cranks on my hunqapillar form the Sugino triple (with a 107
or 110 bb) to a White Industries Eno (with a 113 bb). Trying to figure out
if I go w/ the $40 bb on Riv's site? Or a White Industries or something
similar? This bike will see 500-1000 miles a year on dirt and some mud. And
support the occasional overnighter.
