Hi Folks....

I just bought a new Miche Primato BB for my Rodrguez. It's adjustable like the Phil BB. Someone mentioned that the Phil folks recommend using loctite on the adjusting cup threads. Is this the case with Miche? I couldn't find any installation info on their site nor could I find any online. To those who have used these BB's, how did you install it? To what torque did you tighten it? What did you use on the threads? Also, what do you think of the BB?

Thanks all...

Jim

Jim - do a search. I believe there have been some discussions about it before. As well as a full review of the Miche groupo by Shiftlessbast.

Thanks,

When I googled, it only found one of the threads on this forum .... I should've used the forum's search feature ...doh!

BTW, does anyone know how to correct the mispelled Miche in the thread title?
