Stopped to check a street sign. In the 2 seconds I stopped, a bead of sweat dripped from my head down my neck, down my spine, right between my two cheeks. forever unclean. |

That's the worst. The weather is like that here today, so I popped in to the sbux for some AC. Maybe I'll do a serious cyclist ride tomorrow...

I saw that, did a search of inventory of the two LBS, no such luck. Prefer to get the correct tool but do all else fails will just do it big john’s way. |

For home use I scored one of these on blowout for $3, IIRC. I like that the plastic dealio is oven knob style, so easier to grip. https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...b1395f0c65.jpg |

I like my Wheels Mfg BB wrenches, but their Shimano Preload Tool might be a little over-the-top.

I prolly will not want to do it myself.
Do I put grease on both top and bottom? Should I clean the bearings before adding grease? Silly questions, but have yet to mess with it. |
