Simon Posted June 23, 2006 Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 Right, heres the deal, the bottom bracket tool wont over this spacer type thing on my ISIS bottom bracket.I've tried pulling the spacer out, tried getting a screw driver in there and pulling it from behind sort of thing, nothing.There is the spacer, at the bottom of the [shaft]?Theres what i mean about the tool not going over the spacer.Help.

TomN Posted June 23, 2006 Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 You need another BB tool which allows you to go in more. My mate bought a race face BB Tool i think it was from CRC which did the job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted June 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 Ok, i just googled and it looks like it isn't a spacer? Would this be correct in thinking? So i just need a tool with a bigger inside bore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hobnobs Posted June 23, 2006 Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 Park BBT-2 has a big ole centre hole, should fit. It fits my FSA Plat Pro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bEavoLa Posted June 23, 2006 Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 yup - either the RaceFace BB tool or the Park BBT-2 will do the jobwerd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Posted June 23, 2006 Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 On my FSA Platinum Pro the 2 'spacers' are removable so i just whip em off and use my shimano bb tool. As for your BB im not sure give it a good clean up and see if its one piece or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
