  • Thumbs Up from Germany! ;-)

  • @TheDithrockt Thanks! Germany is were I started Mntbiking in 1987 near Stutgart on a steel hard tail peugeot bike and what a great place to ride.

  • ahhh matee help me, whats your tool called cause i need one of them that has the thing that actually goes into the square taper and stops the tool slipping out, whats it called ?

  • @CharlieCroucherBB It's called a crank puller. Every one needs a good crank puller,eh!

  • i like my bike to sound like that, it keeps me company on late rides

  • @Stan1455 Do you hear that sound in your sleep too! Ha HA!

  • Thanks for the show...good advice to remove the non-gear side first, and also the reverse threads on gear side important to know.  I finally got mine off and instead of a Shimano it was some worn out unit labeled Chinaur...will replace with a Shimano.

  • is that a euro bottom bracket

  • And yeah a little grease saves headaches in the future.

  • Ah bloody always get caught out by the reverse thread on the drive side.

  • Nice and simple, cheers!

  • Maybe I'm just being an old fuddy duddy but it would have been nice to see you clean the threads with a clean cloth and then grease everything up before you put it all back in there so that if you have to take it apart again it ain't seized solid, I was taught by an old mechanic who always said "a little greasing now saves a hell of a lot of sweat later".

  • A fire at 1108 Grant Streetgn

  • I have this tool: Item # BBT-22

    But the spline tool will not stay in place and will keep slipping off when I apply force. Is there a locking tool that I can use together with this?

  • can anyone help ive just brought a new onza bottom bracket but the left cup wont come off any help
