Hey guys/gals,
My Truvative GXP BB (used with bontrager cranks that came with Lemond Fillmore) has started making ominous grinding noises which I understand will soon lead to its death. I have taken it apart and cleaned an regreased what I could get to but it seems the actually bearings are very tough to replace without some special tool...I dont currently have the money to replace it for full price, wonder if by some miracle anyone has one sitting around they want to get rid of??
Cheers in advance
alternately if someone has a clever idea for how to replace the sealed bearing units on the cheap I am all ears
