Bottom bracket

[tempessuk]

At the moment i have a shimano fc-4550 bottom bracket
If i get a better one will it improve my riding?
Many thanks

To be honest I would doubt you would notice a difference. However changing your wheels and the world is your oyster...

No.

Best way to improve your riding - pedal harder.
I often look at expensive upgrades then think, what is the point when I can still make gains out of this bike by cycling faster!

It might make the crank smoother when spinning

Na you need to change your legs...

To be more serious, I wouldn't bother changing the bottom bracket unless/until it was worn out, get more expensive gear might lighten the bike a wee bit (and will certainly lighten the wallet) but for significant improvement in performance there is no substitute for time in the saddle...

That shiny new licence isn't going to last long with that attitude.
