PaRtZ Posted January 22, 2007 Report Share Posted January 22, 2007 welcome to my world heheMy gigapipe didn't fit for some reason, until I got the good ol molegrips and 4ft extension bar to get it in. Now theres no notches left on the cup and no way of getting it out:=> my solution: Buy a new BB + frame Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broomer Posted January 22, 2007 Report Share Posted January 22, 2007 im guessing your undoing the non-drive side first otherwise it wont work. just make sure you hold the tool in straight next time.is there enough of the bb cup sticking out of the frame to wrap mole grips around rearly tight?

2sixstreet Posted January 22, 2007 Report Share Posted January 22, 2007 Assuming you are turning it the right way, try a looong extension bar or a bit of heat or both. If that doesnt work you could resort to cutting it out with a dremel. Save the frame at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan6061 Posted January 22, 2007 Report Share Posted January 22, 2007 Heat it up, and undo it?Soak it in WD40, and then try?...or let the LBS try it, if they f**k it up, they owe you a frame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
