The Chris King Bottom Bracket is designed to
offer season after season of smooth turning service. To ensure maximum
performance we strongly recommend proper reaming and facing to be done
to the bottom bracket shell by a qualified bicycle mechanic prior to
component installation. *If you buy a frame and bb here, we'll do this
during installation.*
For installation of the bottom bracket King offers the Chris
King BB
External Cup Tool. Their cup tool is anodized aluminum and features a
3/8" socket drive and recommend use with a high-quality torque wrench.
The spline interface is precision made to match King bottom bracket
cups
ensuring a secure fit during installation while preventing finish
damage.
