Tioga BB question

<< < (3/5) > >>

bobbbbsy:
The bit between the spider and the cone/backnut is a washer / shim. How do you hope to loosen it when the cone/backnut is clamped to it ?

That Swan Guy:
how has this thread got so confusing?

to take the spider off you need to remove the nut holding it on to the crank.

either you take it off using a spanner and turn it aginst the stationary crank or you clamp the nut and turn the crank against the staionary nut!

whether there is a washer/spacer in between the nut and the spider is irrelevant!

HUTCHMAN:
i use a dirty great 18" long 1/2" thick adjustable.. plenty of leverage !! Why do you need such a thin spanner?

So now I need a super thin 34mm x 2mm thick spanner that can get in between the spider and the BB cone...

any ideas?

Just wondering....... You have taken the crank out of the BB?
