Need to get at my Di2 battery and junction box and my bike has a handy panel behind the BB (not under the downtube where the battery is actually located...). So I need to remove the BB (honestly who signed off that design?!).

If anyone is near Hither Green and would be able to briefly lend me a removal tool and a suitable press for a press fit BB I would be enormously grateful, and would almost certainly compensate with beer...

I need to get this sorted this weekend as off to Flanders on Thursday...

I'm not quite local, but London bridge so easy reach for you in case you're out of luck. No rush to bring back until after Flanders (lucky sod)

You're v kind - in the end I bought the tools and sorted it - I guess I'm going to need to get to the battery again at some point so figured worth it! Thank you tho!

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

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

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