      @@M0jibake technically, a press fit is a better way to fit a cartridge bearing than a threaded fitting.
      Done correctly, the bearing should actually be an interference fit on the axle and a slip-fit into the frame.
      In practical terms, though, everything comes down to cost - a press fit, to be made accurately, is very expensive, especially in composite. A threaded fitting, although technically inferior if cost is no object, can be designed and made at lower cost for the same degree of accuracy.
      In composite, though, the problem is a reliable bond between a metal BB sleeve that can carry a thread and the composite of the frame - hence press fit gaining popularity. PF is also lighter, so for the weight-weenies, it scores.

    What are your thoughts on manufacturers recommending a dry press fit?

    • @parktool
      @parktool  4 роки тому +4

      It is interesting. Mostly because the manufacturer does not know what material the bottom bracket is going to be. That and the potential for the tolerances to be too tight or too loose are high. Grease and other prep can make install much much easier for a tight interface and can take up space and silence a loose one. It also aids in install. Making it easier to install with less force and less potential for galling, rocking or other damage.

      Keep in mind the press bottom bracket is only half the system. The frame shell is the other half, so the recommendation of the bike builder must also be considered, and they do not always match. Our recommendations are based on our experience, bike manufacturer recommendations, and of course component manufacturer's recommendations.

    • @parktool

      The RT-1 and the BBT-90.3 are both similiar designs. They are just intended to remove different sized races. Depending on the crank you are running in your BB86, you may need one or the other tool. Its a common misconception that the bottom bracket shell tells us what tool is required. Its more the spindle that will tell us what tool is going to be best.

    • @parktool
      @parktool  4 роки тому

      Similar in concept, very different in fit. The RT-1 is much larger and will not fit the bottom brackets for the 22 or 24mm spindles. Use the RT-1 for larger spindle bottom brackets, such as DUB spindles in 28.99, or those with 30mm.

    Hi, it’s a great video. But a few questions remain unclear for me.
    First: is it always assumed that you always remove bottom bracket to replace it with a brand new one?
    Maybe you could only want to clean and reinstall the bottom bracket or replace only a damaged bearing.
    And that lead us to my second question:
    Second: don’t you never use (or have) a press tool to remove? Isn’t there any danger to damage bearings when striking it?
    Third: This is about different options of new bearings installation. I found a pair of bearings with only a minimal cup just to evolve the 42x30x7 bearing and hold it inside the 46mm shell so or doesn’t need an internal sleeve that I don’t really understand.
    Even you may wish to use a thread together bb. I mean that the only condition you must attend is your shell type and then options spread depending on your crank. Is it?

    Hello,
    How to install a bottom bracket like sunrace BBS08? - the first cup can be pressed with a press, but then one has to insert the axle with bearings to the frame, which makes it impossible to use the press for the second cup.
    How to [then] remove the bottom bracket? - while one could put the bicycle on its side and punch in the second cup, how to then *remove* cups once they are installed? With threaded bottom brackets there would be a screw / cup to unscrew, but this is not the case with BBS08.

      Press fit bearings are the go to standard for any applications. The reason they have been an issue in bikes is that manufacturers don’t understand or don’t control the tolerances to the same specification as the bearing manufacturers.
      Press fit has been used everywhere for decades, it’s only when the bike industry got hold of it with it’s fists of ham and fingers of butter that it gained a notorious reputation.
      Threaded BB still has the actual bearing pressed into the cup, the difference being the cup has likely been manufactured to the correct bore diameter and tolerance assuming you buy a good quality part.

      Thats a tough one. I'll get back to you. You may be able to use a PF41 bottom bracket and some spacers to run a 2 piece MTB crank. I can say that you will not be able to run a threaded bottom bracket in your bike. But you may be able to run a pressfit bottom bracket that will allow you to use many MTB cranksets.

You can find a cheap suitable puller for bike BB bearings online, a few guys with machine shops at home tend to make them in small numbers (usually engineers, and like me they are alarmed at the inappropriate used in bike servicing compared to the industry standards for bearings, bolted joints, interfaces etc).

      @@NeutralGenericUser bearing pullers are conventionally used for press fit bearings in various applications (car wheel bearings being one).
      Bike versions are simple, they are usually an alloy or Delrin cup that sits against the face of the frame with a flat insert that goes behind the bearing. It uses a bolt or threaded stud so you can wind the bearing out of the frame, essentially the reverse of pressing it in with threaded screw press.
      I was going to get a couple
      Machined up then found them cheap online so it wasn’t worth bothering (pro bearing tools I got mine from).
      I put the bolt into the puller from inside the bb and used an extension with an Allen bit; that way the inner race of the bearing spins as you wind the puller in which is a really easy way to evenly slide a bearing out placing minimal load on the frame.

Not a make it or break thing to me. in the long run, press fit will outlast a threaded bb.
