Hi to all of you bike mechs out there,
I'm one of those people that doesn't have the money to bring the bike to the bike shop for everything. Sorry I would love to support you guys, but...Yes, I'm also one of those people that used to ride an instrument in the past (gears) but have that down now. I guess it takes, like everything, practice.
1) It seems that the bottom bracket got a little loose. Yes, I already tightened the cranks/leverage arms or whatever you want to call it, so I'm sure it's the bottom bracket. Bought the bottom bracket tool to tighten it, but would like to have some advise, because I don't want to be smartass and break anything.
what's the correct way to tighten a bottom bracket, how should I clean it and what grease should I use?
2) I also have to change the cogset. Any recommendations on that? What tools do I need?
thanks,
daniel
