tdubz Posted July 1, 2012 Report Share Posted July 1, 2012 Got a frame and it looks like the bottom bracket is in a pretty bad way... The teeth that you would use to grip your bb tool to have gone and some of the threads seem a bit damaged. I know you can get bottom brackets rethreaded but how could i get the old one out Really wanna try and save this frame Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SamKidney Posted July 1, 2012 Report Share Posted July 1, 2012 Saw two sides off the driveside cup (if theres a lip that seats against the frame), to form two parallel flats, and use a wrench to unscrew it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
