| I was looking for a new bottom bracket with bearings. Preferably sealed. Does anybody know where I can get some good ones cheap? Also if anyone has some to sell, feel free to post those here too. | |

| There is a bearing cup on the bb where the bearings go and they are all different sizes. | |

I haven't been able to find the specs of my bike, and I've been looking for a few months now. Care to take a second look? If you found it, I would love you. In the most heterosexual way possible. | |

| wait a minute. If you dont have a unsealed crank spindle this will not work. IS your current bottom bracket sealed??? | |

| No because unsealed bottom brackets have threaded spindles. You can tighten it or loosen it with this plate that threads onto the spindle. Unsealed spindles are smooth all the way across. You tighten it from the crank bolt. | |

| Probably a whole new crank setup. I believe you would need a 48 spline spindle and the bearing set and your cranks will be fine as long as they are 3 pc | |
