Re:

One bottom bracket tool, crank bolt and makeshift washer to hold it in place.


Add spanner and six foot scaffold pole

That's your leverage sorted.

No movement with two people trying. After two weeks of soakingh in penetrating oil three times a day. Out comes Mr blow torch. Five minutes heating bottom bracket shell.


Clean threads but a whole heap of mud etc


Probably hardest thing I've done on a bike!
