Failed Bottom Bracket
Failed Bottom Bracket
At about 800 miles my bottom bracket has given up the ghost completely. First I noticed a vibration in the pedals. Then every now and then a click. Now, LOUD clicks, constant grind, and sometimes a catch, doesn't want to allow pedals to turn. Currie's phones are overloaded, message said call back tomorrow. I emailed them my plea.
A while back an electrical connector pooped out, fastners not tight at assembly. They got me the part in a couple of days. For that there was a work around, this NO.
I guess the point is if you hear something from you BB, take it apart right away. The progression didn't take long.
