My other bike is a mtb have managed to successfully remove worn out bottom bracket. Bought the replacement but can't get it in. First time I have attempted this job. Being a bit of a doofus and not realising what was involved I may have knackered the threads? The new one goes in nicely about half way then gets stuck. Do I need to chase and face? Is there a way I can do that myself without too much expense? It's an aluminium frame.
