But I honestly can’t tell if you guys are trolling or not with the “buy a new bike thing”. I don’t have an issue buying a $20 part and a few tools to do it myself. At the very least I see no harm spending an hour or two learning a new skill. I do have an issue with tossing out a bike that can be repaired let alone one that could get stolen/parted out when parked on campus.
When I replaced the BB on my Genesis Roadtech(same thing but more roadbikey); I used a sealed unit for a mtb, because the width and gearing is mtb. I love the frame and everything around the frame is the bullspit. I built mine up to roughly a "$600" bike. It got stolen and I got a Denali to do the same.
