Hey.

I’ve got a Gossamer Pro crankset on a FSA bottom bracket which is worn out as FSA bottom brackets appear to be utter garbage. I’ve got a new Hollowtech lying around and wondered if the two will work together?

Cheers,

Tom.

Naw

Buy a cheap Hollowtech 2 chainset (usually plenty 2nd hand on lfgss) and you can then use decent bottom brackets going forward.

Thanks. Gonna need it for an event this weekend so ideally need to find a bottom bracket that will work. I’m happy buy an FSA bb if there’s anything decent?

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
