Title: REDLINE BB HELP/ADVICE ?
Post by: kuwahero on February 09, 2008, 10:18 PM

Hey Guys

Have a frame with one of the newer redline flight bb's in. The ones with the blue collar inside between the cup. How do I get the cups out the frame without fookin them. Cant use headset cup remover as its to big, also can move the collar inside to push cup from inside with drift or anything

Ideas Please  :daumenhoch:

Cheers Marc

Your gonna have to move the sleeve inside enough to get a bar or socket extension onto the bearing/cup. It's the only way really. It shouldn't be that tight either.

it was avery tight fit putting them in my hutch,even after shaving loads of paint off the frame and the cup itself, so i know they are going to be tuff to get back out, lump hammer and chisel i think :knuppel2:
