  • replacing a pre load washer on BB30 cranks with washers to take up the slack…

    Anyone got any experience with doing this? The preload washer on my sram carbon cranks isn’t doing it’s job so I’m thinking of just using one or two spacers/shims to ake up the slack and preload the washers. Is it that simple. I won’t start bodging until tomorrow morning but thought I’d consult the oracle of singletrackworld first.

    Cheers,
    Matt

    BB30 brackets normally come with a selection of nylon ‘washers’ for this purpose. you only need to take up the slop though, not actually add preload to the bearing.
