Devout Dirtbag
Scratchy bottom bracket means out with the old and in with the new
But google reveals all sorts of horror stories regarding these CS20's - thought i had better do some checking as mentioning 'standard' size/fitting and 'bicycle industry' in the same sentance just makes me PMSL.
Apart from being weird in the sense that it goes into the frame the wrong way around :? .....
This CS20 looks pretty symmetrical.
It seems the weirdness can increase with different varieties of CS20 with things like different sized spindles on the left and right side, cranks contacting the frame when a different variety used etc.....
The frame is a 92 Rockhopper.
The cranks are Exage LX500 with Biopace chainrings.
Anyone know if i can just replace this BB with a 'standard' 73 x 122.5 square taper?
Or do i really need like for like
Much appreciated.
