Hollowtech II BBR60

[GetFatty]

So who's idea was it to make the adapter from cheese? I've wrecked two now. Does anyone know where I can get a metal one?

*the R60 is the smaller variant of HTII

Ah apparently I needed to search for BB R60 rather than HT2.

Link to the tool you found?

Expensive, but is the right tool for the job.

Better than the stupid plastic thing that comes with the BB that's for sure

Be aware. The DuraAce version of this BB, the BB-R9100 looks identical to the BBR60 but is a couple of mm smaller and requires yet another tool.

The website says it is for the R60 but thanks for the heads up.

What happened to it just being HT2?

Get your lbs to take off the bb and replace with the normal size.

I've got 2 R60s now though. It'll be OK now I've got the right kit

Well, if you do get the metal tool to remove it, I'll need to lend it to remove one that I have.

They come in handy for several uses. I'm surprised how often I use mine.
Welk worth the money.
