Just looking at one of these for next time I change bearings, has anyone fitted one?

As they screw together I'm thinking there may be a specific tool to do this rather than the usual press fit method.

There's a few that screw together now. I've not seen that one before. But if you're bbright then the WheelsMFG one will work also. I've got one I haven't fitted yet, all I needs in the way of tools is a GPX bottom bracket wrench for about £10.

Still use Loctite and activator?

Not for the WheelsMFG one - just PTFE grease for a carbon frame.

Hmm, the BBRight bearings sit inboard of the frame, with only the flange of the cup on the outside.

So struggling to see how you can get a tool on it to screw it in.

The flange has notches in it that correspond to the teeth on the GPX bottom bracket tool

Ah ok, makes sense looking at it again.

Cheers
