I think these workshop videos are my favourite content on this channel. They are enjoyable and relaxing to watch, and I get to learn something new every time.
Al, great to see you back. Your vids are the best on YT. Down to earth and not requiring a life time subscription to park tool. Keep them coming.
This video just saved me from replacing my bottom bracket. I swapped out my pedals and no more creaky creaky. Thank you!
Step 1: Throw the frame away.
Been waiting for this!
I have a Fuel EX wich was creaking as hell... I thought it was the bb because it creaked only when pedaling. I checked and cleaned everything. I disassembled my whole bike and used a torque wrench for every screw. In the end it was the abp pivot in the rear wich has from factory no grease in it. I put some grease on it and my bike is quiet.
Good video, I acctually have a creaky bb at the moment so this is a good help👍
We could of had threaded 46 mm shell, just because you change the bearing size for using a 30 mm shaft does not mean you throw out the threaded BB. This Press fit works fine for stationary motors but bikes are completely different with climbing that is when creaking appears. If you live in the flats your road bike will never get any creaking if you just sit and ride the bike, the problems start when you stand up and pedal up hills.
Good content!
Watched this at 1.15x speed.
Good vidéo 👍😉🤘
As someone else said: throw frame away, dont buy pressfit garbage, get a threaded frame.
How to fit a creaky pressfit bottom bracket ....sums it up nicely
Each company has vastly different ideas on BB diameter when making a PF BB shell, which drives me nuts. I've literally beaten the living hell out of a PF BB (with the correct removal tool) and it wouldn't shift easily. The sooner companies go back to threaded, the better.
Unfortunately that Fox CSU will still creak 😕
Cool
Here is how to fix that problem. Stay the fuck away from press fit bottom brackets. They are a horrible idea in an already confusing world of bottom brackets
Nice video. Should've used a pressfit removal tool though...
That dang tool destroyed the finish of the new BB
Quite brave to tap out the bearings like that without the proper tool...You could actually make the open slightly bigger doing it that way...
