The bearing cups have a face that looks like the picture below - there are two indented slots that are apparently used to rotate it. This time, I used a hammer and screwdriver to do the initial loosening, but is there an actual tool? Would the Park HCW-11 tool do the job?
Id put another BB in, after you drove that one out with hammer and cold chisel , at least the fixed cup, so you can thereafter just use the more common BB tools..
Shimano's fit and forget UN22, are cheap enough these days..
