Title: KHE Easy Rider Bottom Bracket size
Post by: laidback on March 08, 2015, 11:03 PM: Im currently fixing up a KHE Easy rider. One of the bearings is knackered and i wish to replace them. I had a spare US BB in a box, and knocked out the bearings to fit them to the cups in the KHE frame, but they are a touch too small, loose in cups and the crank spindle won't fit through the middle.

Does anyone know what BB it is, and what size i need to order/what replacement bearings to get. New school (ish) is a bit new to me...Thanks :daumenhoch:
