Bike maintenance help
Posted: Thu Jun 16, 2011 11:22 am
So I'm hearing a lot of creaking from my bike when I stand up to pedal and I'm pretty sure it's the BB (after my last tune-up they told me it would need replacing soon.)
So my options are: take it to a LBS and have them replace it or replace it myself.
If I have a shop do it, who would you recommend?
If I replace it myself am I going to save enough money to make it worth the hassle?
I would think labour for replacing a BB isn't that much, is that a correct assumption?
If I do it myself, which BB do I order?
Written on the BB is: "BC1.37x24 ROAD"; one side says "DB" and other "CL".
