You know how it is, helping a neighbour get a 90's bike he's been given ready for a bit of use.
Needed to adjust a small bit of play out of the BB.... Don't have the correct tool anymore, use a rubber mallet/ screw driver on one of the lock ring notches.... Snap. Break the lock ring... Sods law it's always when trying to sort out someone else's bike.lol
Anyone got one I could buy/donate some money to a charity for.... Or know where I can get them without the rest of the BB?
Thanks for the help guys.
It's this one in the pic. No idea if there were ever different versions made, so took a pic.

ooof.
buy him a cheap UN26 bb to say sorry/
Think I may I will look tonight.
Ebay or SJS Cycles will usually have stuff like that if you're struggling.
Are they a genuine (single) "standard" fit ?
I think I've got one somewhere but it'll be 30+ years old - will have a look
I'd suggest a trip to the LBS with biscuits and a smile would probably locate one of those in their spares box. Most BSOs still come with that sort of BB.
There are a couple of BSOs dumped in our cycle shed. I'll have a look at lunchtime, see if there's one to rescue.
Shacks for all the offers guys. An lbs, weren't able to help so if one of you does have one that Wwould be great.👍
Ah, sorry went to pub at lunch ๐ Will check on the way out in a short while.
Thanks buddy!👍😁
Sorry, can't find mine in the box of redundant shite.ย Not sure where else to look
If you choose to replace the cup and cone BB with something sealed. You need to measure the frames BB wheel width and the over all length of the axle without the cranks on.
Cant help with a lock ring sorry
I found one. Well 3
Pm me if you still need one.
Stoddy

Cheers Andrew, I think I'm sorted with stoddys gleefully, but if not I'll pm you bud.

I can't be the only one who read that as cock ring.
