Shimano BB

[dylankeyter]

Hi Hubbers

 

I made a bit of a blunder as I re-installed my XT crankarm into my serviced external BB and damaged the plastic washer/seal. Does anyone have an old Shimano BB or a plastic washer they are wanting to get rid of? Would be much appreciated, explained my case to my LBS mechanic and he disapprovingly told me the BB is not servicable and that there are no such parts available, but I know TheHub will prove him wrong I am also looking for an old axle, merely need the washers from that; neither LBS nor Mica could help me. My rear tyre is hitting the frame due to the wheel being off-centre, I need at least 1 washer to correct it. I am willing to pay cash too Thanks

Regarding the rear wheel. Are you sure it is a axle problem and not a dishing problem?

Or even a bent rear triangle or worn-out dropout?

If its just the plastic cover you need, I might have one. I will look this week end.

Where you based?

Thanks guys! (girls?!... naat!) I found some washers for my wheel in my spares, running perfectly now thanks. Still looking for the BB washer though

I have a used but good Shimano external BB Right side. If it is exactly what you need, you're welcome to have it. Someone helped me recently, and this will be paying it forward.

 

I'm in Mowbray, I have pm'd you my telephone number.
