thanks. yeah, its a suspension fork.

a coop is a great idea, as i dont have bb tools, but theyre not expensive to get. i found a couple coops sorta nearby, but theyre not super close and the hours arent great, so i may just get the tools.

if i do it. still undecided, i havent actually gotten the bike yet. it would be $30 for the bike itself, plus whatever it takes to make it ridable.

for the bb, do i only need to match the sizing? ive been doing some research on them, and it seems theres different types, tthreaded, push in, etc. will any type work as long as its the right size?

thanks again.
