Carbon frames have a 46 mm I.D. bottom bracket bearing system press interface. The shell width is 83mm.
Maintenance
In general, you should inspect the condition of the bearings annually (at a minimum) or anytime the crankset assembly is
disassembled , serviced, or if a problem is indicated.
To inspect, when the crankset is removed, rotate the inner bearing race of both bearings; rotation should be smooth, and
quiet. Execesssive play, roughness or corrossion indicates a damaged bearing.
Removal
To avoid serious damage to the frame, it is important to remove bearing systems very carefully using proper tools
indicated by the manufacture’s service instructions. Make sure the bearings(cup or adpater parts) are driven out squarely
and evenly from inside the shell!!! Do not pry components from shell.
Replacement
PressFit BB30 bearings are not removable from the adapters or cup systems that are pressed into the frame bottom
bracket shell. Therefore, damaged bearings must be removed and replaced as new entire sets. Before installing any new
bearing units into the shell, thoroughly clean the inside surface of the bottom bracket shell with a clean dry shop towel.
Also, make sure both bearing units and the BB shell surfaces are clean and dry. Do not apply grease to either.
Follow the manufacture’s instruction for assembly and installtion of the bearing system. Use a headset press such as Park
Tool HHP-2. See http://www.parktool.com/product/bearing-cup-press-HHP-2 Select appropriate press and adapters to
ensure that force is only applied to the cup and not the bearing inside. Press until the both cup flanges are mated to the
BB shell edge.
