At the very least, expect to wait for one to be ordered, and expect the bill to be in the vicinity of $100 installed.
Thanks D*Alex!! 100 bucks......
This bike is sucking my money!! And my will to live! J/K
I got mine out with my hands...Not very hard. I haven't tried to put it back in yet, I need to clean the bearings up. Were they clipped in by snap rings??
What I am thinking of doing is buying a bag of stainless steel bearings from biketoolsetc and then replacing the bearing I have..It should work good as new then. I was looking at my current BB bearing and they have dings in them and corrosion all over. I dunno, I am still searching the net for info. Thanks again D*Alex!
