Hello,
I'm upgrading my 90s era Eddy Merckx Strada OS that I purchased from a forum member several years ago, and am currently working on the crankset. So the first thing that needs to come off is the bottom bracket unit, which I've finally managed to loosen on both ends after a lot of effort. It's Italian threaded, so I've been unscrewing both sides anti-clockwise. The trouble is it's not coming out no matter how much I unscrew it! Any ideas what might be the problem?
