Hi everyone,
I have a Cervelo S5 with the BBRight bottom bracket. I'd like to install a Rotor 3D Quarq crankset. I bought a new bottom bracket that I believe should work with the frame and crankset, which has a 24mm spindle. Here's a link to the bottom bracket I bought: http://www.artscyclery.com/descpage-RTBBR24.html
My question is, other than the tools necessary to remove and install the cranksets, what else do I need, if anything? In particular, I'm wondering if I need some washers (perhaps a wavy washer), and if so, what type, how large, and where exactly do I place the washers?
Also, how can I find out how tightly to screw everything in with a torque wrench?
Thanks so much for your help!
Arthur
