Week 2 of the Quick n’ Dirty class focused on bottom brackets. We talked about many of the common styles and demonstrated installation of a one-piece crank/bottom bracket and a loose-ball, square taper bottom bracket. We also covered troubleshooting tips, how to find compatible replacement parts, and how to select the proper bottom bracket for your frame. Here’s the handout: QnD_BottomBrackets.
