(Read this in your nice voice because I'm not trying to be rude) Think about this 🤔 if you don't agree with Hambini then just clearly explain why he's wrong and why you're right. Hambini wouldn't have a channel if he called someone a wanker then asked us to like, sub, bell his five second video. People are interested in what he has to say because he'll call out a wanker then spend 45 minutes explaining in detail the design flaws and how it could be improved. If you call someone an idiot then back it up with an explanation. If you don't think he's right I would love to hear an explanation. Trust me I love counter arguments it's how things get better. If Hambini calls someone a wanker and doesn't explain why then he would seem like a dick. Because he explains himself he comes across as being fed up.

It looked counter-intuitive to me too, so I looked it up with Google, here is what I got: Are bottom bracket threads backwards? Dear Lennard, The way the bottom bracket thread standard is, it would cause a bottom bracket cup to loosen when pedaling if a bottom bracket bearing gets too tight. It seems that if the drive-side is right-hand thread and the non-drive-side is left-hand, then the pedaling motion will not cause the cups to loosen. Did someone got it wrong originally or is there a good reason for it? Luckily bottom brackets are becoming threadless. - Ned Dear Ned, Actually, the English standard bottom bracket threads are set up correctly. When the bearings are functioning properly, pedaling tightens the cups in. When the bearings are seized up, pedaling would loosen the cups. If that’s not clear, then think about it for a moment. The drive-side cup is left-hand threaded, so if the crank were affixed to the cup like a wrench (as would happen if the bearings were seized up), pedaling forward would turn the cup clockwise, which would unscrew the left-hand-threaded cup. But if the bearing turns freely, then the spindle turning clockwise rolls the ball bearings along with it, and the outboard side of each ball turns the opposite direction of the inboard side of the ball. So, the free-rolling balls are tightening the cup in further as the rider pedals forward. The inverse is of course true for the non-drive-side cup. And pedal threads behave the same way, even though the drive-side pedal is right-hand thread and the non-drive-side pedal is left-hand threaded. ― Lennard

Childish Hambino: you should make your own BB standard, it's been weeks since we have had a new "standard". I blame COVID and lazy Cannondale workers. I recommend a metric diameter converted from British Thermal Units and 0.7mm added and a random letter. The sales feature could be the second decimal, the world needs a 78.27k mm standard. Make sure it never fits the 78.27r standard (which is NOT 78.27R) and never label it.

@rollinrat48504 жыл бұрын
Oli Sharp If you want your bearings to work right and last very long with this type of design, the threads and faces of the shell must be properly manufactured and prepped in a professional manner. EVERY 'professional' shop has the proper tools to make this happen, (just not always the expertise!) but they CANNOT SOLVE poor manufacturing and QC issues at the factory level. This is the same problem as with Pressfit shit which can never ever be made right with current production procedures!! These frame prep procedures I mentioned ENSURES ALIGNMENT or proves a lack of manufacturing quality. These are things that ought to be done when the bike is assembled at the factory, but very rarely is, due to greed and the bottom line! Often, even on high end bikes! High quality, perfect and long lasting threaded BBs have existed for decades! Just about as long as bicycles have existed. I own many examples. If you want to see an example of old school perfect loose ball BBs, look at a Sugino Superlap BB in an NJS qualified track bike. Hell, I have an ancient Raliegh with a loose ball cottered bb that spins smoother and quieter than lots of the pressfit shit I come across! Hambini's unit doesn't 'improve' alignment of the shell!!! There is no difference (function wise) between Hambini's and a Shimano bb aside from the bearings used and the serviceability. Can you not see this? How many bearing assemblies have you installed? Am I the only machinist and mechanic who comments here? Gee Whiz!

I was thinking about the return to threaded BBs that has started with the likes of Trek. They have gone all the way back to an aluminium tube bonded into the BB that cups thread into. Why didn't they make a aluminium tube that bearings can press directly into, essentially like Hambini's BB here and just bond it into the BB shell? This one is made to replace a HollowTechII BB so the bearings are external to the frame. If someone was designing from scratch they might make it a single part where the external surface is a plain tube and just have internal ridges that the bearings press against. It could be as wide as a current pressfit BB and whatever diameter the frame allows. Is any more required than that?

Every metal to metal contact point on a bicycle should have a proper coating of grease, loctite, carbon paste etc. One of the only points that doesn't is where spokes pass through holes on the hub flanges What to use or not to use on square taper crank spindles was a highly controversial subject way back when! Yes, grease the spindle where it passes through the bearings and grease those splines on the end. Grease or loctite on every bolt. Grease the pedals! Very Light thin coating of grease or carbon paste on seatpost, stem, Steerer, h'bars, saddle rails. All this stuff makes for a quiet bicycle, Easier assembly, disassembly and torquing. Its the professional thing to do. Modern high performance bicycles are noise factories and this is how you avoid it along with not buying press shit BBs. I go through lots of grease wrenching in my shop!

Darn I wished you'd offered this sooner. What difference between BB with nylon shim vs metal to metal like Wheel Manufacture, Hope, Enduro (I don't know the specific bearing number off hand). Anecdotally I always had better luck with metal to metal, including dare I admit 1st gen GXP pre-wave washer. BTW between your video on Campy cranks and doing some digging around on Sheldon Brown page. I now absolutely now understand why threaded is an anachronisms is it was designed for cup and cone system and threads set the pre-load. The reason the cartridge Octalink and sq taper (Phil Wood, Shimano UD55) work so well as you pointed out the bearing are pressed onto the axle have superior performance. It wasn't the threading made work better those BB superior. They could have pressed in like a headset and they would have worked just as well, threading was just a convenience. I guess come down fact as long as cranks are two piece vs three piece (like DA 7700 or Ultegra 6500) all these from THM to FSA (and everything inbetween) is gonna under perform and be high maintainance
