Yo guys, quick question, is my bb screwed:

I can pedal about 3 times and it siezes and i can't pedal anymore. I kick it and the process is repeated,

I have cleaned the bearings out, re-greased them and tried again but the same problem occurs.

It is a mid bb, 19mm that came with my fit flow.

Do i need a new bb?

Most likely... although I don't see how the bb would be shot already.

maybe its your hub/freewheel

That's a good idea.

Yeah I don't see how that is possible with a sealed bb. It's most likely your hub. Take your chain off and see if your cranks spin freely.

ok, ill give that a go, not sure it will be the hub though because i just got a new one a week or so ago

Man you upgrade your bike like everyday! I just ride **** until it breaks haha. I'm suprized you dont have wombolts yet haha. What hub is it?

This happend to my buddy a few days ago, but it was a *****ty unsealed hub and basically the bearings just blew up. He could pedal like 3 times and then the wheel would lock up and thats was that. He ended up just getting a whole new wheel.

I wish I had wombolts. They just happen to be wayyyy too expensive.

The cranks that came on my flow are super good so I won't be getting wombolts for a while. By the time I do decide to upgrade, Odyssey will have invented something crazyer anyway. hahah

Can't be arsed getting the wombolts, way to expensive for my liking. The hub is a Primo Mix and I supose I do upgrade my bike often but I have nothing else to spend my money on!

I'll take your hub if you don't like it. I'm dying for a cassette hub...

def check out the parts you just put on eightdip, if you replace/change something on your bike, and then problem X pops up outta nowhere, that's always the first place you should look.

take the chain off. try pedaling. that will help you out figure out if the problems coming from the BB or back wheel, my guess is its coming from the hub

Yeh i sorted the problem and it was the hub. Well done guys . It was one of the pawls wasn't put in properly, ive put it back and it seems to be running fine so far. Cheers!

do you have the shadow hub?

Primo hub.

oh.

Both crappy.

Ok boys. I have a week's ban for the next guy that I catch trying to use any variation of the poopy word. It gets censored for a reason. If you continue to go around the censors, you'll have a week away to spend at some other site, like knitforbarbie.com.

primo makes good hubs

I make good hubs.

Primo is gay.

well if thats what you say
then have a i nice day
because when i play
