Daborn Meister Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 Right, went to remove the bb today and noticed that the little teeth that are used to actually connect the bb tool to the bb are quite stripped, so had a go at attempting to remove it, and because it seems so old it is both tough, and stripped. Any ideas to budge it?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Dark Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 dremel two flats on the side of the bb cup so you can clamp it into a vice or use mole grips etcdremel a slot so you can use a screwdriver to tap it aroundweld some scrap steel to the bb to turn it out ( if its steel ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 Bolt the tool tight into the BB and try again would be the first step IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daborn Meister Posted July 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 Bolt it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 Bolt it, using the crank bolt. Might need some washers and stuff but I never use a BB tool without bolting it in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
