Campagnolo sealed BB servicing

Posted on
  • Greetings to the forum !

    Any idea where I can find instructions/video on how to service a Campagnolo Square taper (i.e. older version) sealed bottom bracket.

    Like this one:

    I am trying to get rid of the clicking in my bb.

    I took it out last night but could not figure out how to clean and regrease as it is completely sealed.

    Cheers

  • think you may have answered your own question these, as i thought they were completely sealed and non serviceable..

    not expensive to buy new

  • Thanks for getting back.

    I may want to upgrade as well. I am a fat ass (110kg) and I get this clicking noise from the BB almost on all my bikes after a while.

    Was thinking of the Chorus 10 speed ??

    Also noticed some options from other brands (Tifo/ Token). Any experience with those??

  • for your generosity of mass, i'd advise sticking with a reputable brand such as campagnolo

    tifosi and token utilise much lighter alloys, and your ahem, power, will destroy them quickly

  • You can't open a sealed BB

    Slightly offtopic
    Is it just me? Or do BB get damaged over time when skidding?

  • Well my BBs get damaged even on Freewheel bikes, I think its the amount of abuse they take. I managed to destroy:

    The shimano sealed BB that came on my modern Binachi Hybrid
    2 Campy sealed BBs same as pic above on my 2 road bikes
    A cheap generic BB on my Falcon 10 speed

    It starts as a clicking noise which becomes louder with time.
