Hi
I am trying to instal a new 105 crankset ot my frame with a 63mm press fit bottom brackets.
The bottom bracket installed has external cups. If I could work out how to oist a pic I would.
The problem I am having is that the crank axle appears to be 5mm longer than the bottom bracket leaving substantial play.
Is there a spacer I am missing?
Any help appreciated.
do you have the spacers on the BB installed ? Should have 3 of them, about 2.5mm each,
What crank came off?
Have you done anything to the bottom bracket or purely removed the old crankset?
No spacers on the BB.
This is my first experience with a pressfit, and the bb was already fitted to the frame.
There was never a crankset in it wheni got it.
Hold on... this is a pressfit ? How is it pressfit and external ? i'm a little confused.
I've got the crank to fit with a heavier handed smack!
I guess I was being a bit gentle ☺️
Ha ha.
