BB90 install tool
Moderator: robbosmans
What do you guys use to intall BB90 bearings? I just removed my crankset and my bearing slipped out with it, so I thought it's time to clean the shell and reinstall them. Any tips for cleaning the BB shell and installing BB90 is welcomed. Thanks.

Whatever you have. Hand/dish soap. Isopropyl alcohol. Vodka?
Get in there as best you can, but most importantly the bearing seat area. Maybe a few Q-tips in there.
