  • Get the frame faced. Skip this and it'll wear any brand of external BB.

    Spoken to two independent bike shops now who have told me this isn't necessary, despite me saying I just want it done as a precaution... it's like they dont want my money?!

    I may take it to evans, they've been the only one interested in my business so far. Weird.

  • If it was faced in the factory then any paint can be taken off with a knife and it's good to go. Did they even look at the frame? If it's unfaced then (as @Dammit says) is pretty slapdash to skip facing the frame for use with outboard bearing cups.

    Find a better shop!
