    I'll let ya know how it goes.. picked up a 110 shimano BB-UN54

    hopefully the old one just needs a loosening rather than replacement - its only a year old so shouldn't really need it yet huh.

    In regards to the above - feather or track.... The new 11 range has a fancy white ghost version, but other than that seems the same as the 10. Same parts etc.

    The classic isn't anywhere near as tight on frame clearance (a quick look noticed) - less of a track based feel I'd say

    Does anyone know the spec details of the bottom bracket on this? 110 or 113? 68?
    I'm just about to replace it but was a little unsure which to get - it might even just need tightening..

    I've had the yellow feather for just over a year now - and yep - you start stripping bits and bobs off it but has been a decent enough ride. had to lose those god awful bars straight up. TBH the bits are all standard. I tried to get the cassette off the other day - fail, the guy at LookMumNoHands could only suggest destroying the freewheel to get the fixed cassette off... hmm... I don't use the free but surely this isn't the best solution...

    Otherwise quite sturdy and a fast ride.
