So whaddayouknow, my lbs has stock of the wheels threaded pf30 bb. Kudos to Farid at Cyclezone in Rustenburg. No tool though, can use the Parktool BBT-029, ordered that.

So took my bike for a ride today after fitting the wheels threaded bb. Yay no more metronome!

Did you get the Token tool to install this BB, notice that in some cases you have to buy a specific tool for i guess the tread on their BB's.

 

I got a Thread together BB to replace a PF from Token cycling that sorted my scott out, and it was just under R600, worth every sent and they will help you to select the correct one as well.

 

2 years later and best money I have spent in a long time.

The token ninja BB's use a 49mm OD 16 notch socket . The wheels manufacturing  BB and others use a 48.5mm OD 16 notch socket.

so in order to install the token BB you need the Token tool or a Park Tool BBT27/27.2 16 notch socket.

Last time I checked CCS did not have the BBT27.2 available but it is available from ChainReaction.

Sell bike. Buy threaded bb bike. School fees paid. Or get one of them screw in versions by praxis or Endurobearing
