In the spirit of encouraging people to stay home during these isolation times, I'll be hosting a live bicycle maintenance session. I have an old bike that needs some things fixed on it, and one of them is the bottom bracket. It presently has a lot of play in it, so my plan is to pull it apart, clean it, inspect it, apply new grease, and put it back together. Since this will be broadcast in real time, it will be much slower paced than my other bicycle maintenance videos. The advantage of this is that it will give you a true sense of what it's like to do this type of task yourself. This is my first time trying this type of video format, so wish me luck!
Here's my condensed tutorial on how to overhaul a bottom bracket: youtube.com/watch?v=VXQA4kNmhPA
