Hi all
I have play in my bottom bracket and need to replace it,I have a
Shimano BB- ES25 and i am looking to upgrade any ideas about a good Quality compatable replacement?
Thanks
The only other choice would be a BB-ES51. There used to be a 71 but that is discontinued AFAIK.
ES25 is Shimano Octalink and I know of no alternative suppliers.
The bigger the ES** part number the dearer and supposedly better kit with less weight for a given size and axle length.
Not all sizes are still available...check out CRC.
I have a brand new spare ES25 68x113 if you cannot get one elsewhere.

Thanks for the offer but chain reaction are doing Shimano ES51 for £11 free postage,ill give ya a fiver?
l,
CRC do have the ES51 in 68x113 but it is £29, not £11.
CRC do not have ES25 in 68x113 at any price.
My offer stands at £17 posted...if you need 68x113 keep shopping round.

Thanks for the extra insight Paul, I now know that i actually need the 68x118 without your knowlege i may have ordered the wrong part,thanks again and no offence for the low ball offer;)
L,
You are welcome, no offence taken, in fact I was rather amused by it.
Sorry I cannot help further.
I see CRC has both models in 68x118.
