Replace A Shimano Hollowtech Bottom Bracket On A Bike

[@kottelkannim4919]

Probably the best series on bike mechanics ever produced. And that is a British understatement.

[@franciscojaviernarbaiza9517]

Thank you very much, I was working on my bike this morning, and this video made it a lot easier. No more annoying noises in my bike, and no more play in my cranks, thanks again.

[@MadeGoodFilms]

Great Fransisco, glad you got your bike back in shape. Our please, thanks for the kind words.

[@007floppyboy]

Thanks, clears up little bits missed from other demo's.

[@colincampbell3695]

Very helpful video that allowed me to easily (and successfully) replace my damaged bottom bracket!

[@jurestiplosek3018]

I love when people make it simple.

[@ericgelders]

I got this bottom bracket on my bike and it makes creaking noises when I seriously excert some power on the pedals. Was dubbing if I could do this myself on my bike - I just need to get this spanner/wrench and I'm good to go. Thanx for this clear and concise explanation!

[@thomaspagenkopf7066]

Excellent and informative.

[@GidoThePirate]

Really good advices in this video. Especially in the end by testing the cranks and the bearings 👍

[@MadeGoodFilms]

Glad it was helpful.

[@colmkerr2353]

just used this to replace my bottom bracket. worked a treat. thanks

[@jasonlaycock9806]

Fantastic thank you very much for this video

[@worldofameiso5491]

Ever heard of a torque wrench? Also it is best to apply a small amount of grease to the end of the axle where it mates with the left hand crank to prevent seizing over time. Apart from that it was a clear explanation. 7/10.

[@tonypotter9578]

When should you use the supplied washers with the hollow tech bottom bracket? Thanks

[@DigitalBathInAZ]

1:00 "Use a soft hammer" then pulls out the Hammer of Thor. 1:00

[@jurestiplosek3018]

Wood is totally OK.

[@jurestiplosek3018]

But with filling

[@craigs66]

Excellent clarity. Thanks!

[@Jimmy_Mate]

fantastic video, thanks a lot!!!

[@BenjaminNew]

When do you use the spacers?

[@mohaymanelneami9345]

This is a really helpful video, Thanx

[@tetaizozadja7080]

on witch side does the plastic washer go????

[@ernestoduartejunior1225]

Seu vídeo chegou ao Brasil. Obrigado por compartilhar

[@thomasboomer9809]

I liked the video, and found it helpful. However I noticed you did not use a torque wrench? It's recommended to use a torque wrench. Tighten to 12 - 14 Nm. I liked the recommendations at the end.

[@p181]

Thank you...... appreciated.

[@remo31]

Great video

[@jefjef4359]

Can you use the bb without the middle plastic bit?

[@DEAR7340]

At the very least, and in my case, I find the tube helpful in not fouling up Di2 cables that run through that space.

[@robertbadea7249]

does these hollow bracket will fit on a DMR DRONE jump bike?

[@ALEXIS-rp7oj]

Is Hollowtech 1 JIS/BSA or other standard?

[@hanhtar9062]

Merci !

[@dillwiggle2]

Should have used a torque wrench on the bottom bracket cups and on the 2 bolts on the left crank arm.

[@DavidNewmanDr]

Unlike more recent videos, it doesn't assume you have a mountain bike with a hanger, instead of something that sits in the slot for the rear wheel axle.

[@m00nchildblues]

good idea! but now while screwing in the two small bolts on the crank arm with a torque wrench set to 12nm, on the arm it says 13-15nm!? Well I started to screw them in evenly on both bolts and then it slipped? I noticed my hex stripped the internal bolt socket being no where near 15nm? Is the spacer in between the bolts in the gap suppose to be loose or is it suppose to be snug and zero gap, ala' 15nm? I would think 15nm would either snap or strip the bolt, 15nm is hard!! what you think?

[@seeadler3233]

I found that the original bolts had a shallow hex hole and a hex wrench slipped out quite easily and rounded out the internal bolt socket . I replaced the bolts with m6x20 1.00 pitch from a hardware store. The replacement bolts have a more secure grip on the hex wrench. They are also , I would guess ,1mm longer than the original and therefore have 1 more thread holding them in the arm. I ride a touring bike and I want my gear to be bullet-proof and easily reparable in the field.

Спасибо брат! Хорошее видео!

[@unogazzy84]

You forgot the spacer part on the bottom bracket. Other than that it was a great video.

[@gaz2750]

What if no movement ?

[@rramkhal]

fuckin Thor over here 1:02

[@Rudywtf]

hollowtech 2 yeah? because hollow tech doesn't have the pinch bolts or the spindle attached to the arms? with all the multiple types of BB's wouldnt it be better to label this correctly? or am i wrong and having problems with all of the other BB's except external bearing's.. GXP and hollow tech 2

[@samurbandy]

Rudywtf Agreed

[@BikeFlips]

Worked for me.

[@ofthelord1020]

The way to replace a shimano bottom bracket is remove it, put it in the bin and put a hope bottom bracket in.

[@kalizen1091]

thaknks

[@MadeGoodFilms]

My pleasure

[@samben9238]

Not worth doing it yourself because the special spana is too expensive for one job !

[@GTiR23]

Good video, piss poor BB, made of chocolate
