Bottom bracket type?
I'm stripping down a Trek 520 and came across a non-Shimano BB for the first time (out of the 5 or so used bikes I've stripped) and don't know how to identify it/what tool I need to remove it. Can anybody help me out?https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...22a46db82a.jpg

An adjustable pin wrench should work to get that out, eg for one shot use: https://www.harborfreight.com/adjust...nch-36554.html
Obviously size of the pins is a parameter. I still have a cycling tool pin wrench in my tool box I haven't used since the '70s, but got for some forgotten BB cup like that. OTOH a punch and tapping gently with a hammer may be all you need. |
Is that a SunTour unit? It looks like an adjustable pin spanner might engage the cup's holes. (maybe the common Green Park SP-?) I suspect the specific tool used the lobes instead. I've used nails and skinny drift punched held in the vice if the tools usually at hand were "missing". Andy
