• Hi all, Got a track octalink bb in a frame that I (+ LBS) am unable to remove with the normal shimano tool. Any recommendations as to why/ anyone experienced the same?

  • Have you heated it? They come with thread lock pre-applied, so if it was put in dry from new you might get a result from softening the glue.

    On the other hand, if it was put into a steel frame dry and has got wet at any point in its life, it might be properly seized and you're going to have to cut it out.
