BB installation question
I am needing to replace the BB om my Surly LHT . I am considering a Chris King or a Phil Wood. It is the external type BB.
My question is ,Do I need a special tool for either of these brands? Or will the Parks BBT-9 be the only tool necessary? Thanks! |

Go to the source. :) The Park Tool web site description of the BBT-9 says it fits both Chris King and Phil Wood external bottom bracket cups along with Shimano and a bunch of others.
Park Tool Co. » BBT-9 : Bottom Bracket Tool : Bottom Bracket |
One aspect of the BBT-9 that I don't like is the squarer edges that mar the engagement notches on the BB cups. Shimano's TL-FC33 or the BBT-19 would be a bit kinder to your expensive BB choices.
