I think you may get the size confused. It is nit bb51. It is 68/73mm and compatible with both 68/73 mm bb frames. You wont have the problem. You can measure it on the frame to make sure though.

i think u got confused la. 135mm is the hub width/spacing. 9mm is the normal QR

owh, thanks for d info
QUOTE(eohl79 @ Nov 4 2013, 01:26 PM)
Er... I'm not a big techie on BB but I think your SM-BB-51 is a model for Deore Bottom bracket and not some 51mm size. 68 or 73mm refers to the width of the BB shell on the frame. That Deore BB outboard bearing interface uses English threading. Not sure what Euro threading means... clarify with the frame manufacturer first. Not sure if Shimano has a BB threading to fit it. Check with bike shop.

yeah, will do..need confirmation first on d threading rite?

QUOTE(Cyphereza @ Nov 4 2013, 01:39 PM)
Yup. thumbup.gif

Just wanna add something, 9mm usually is for the front fork. For the rear, it's 10mm...

really? my frame i think using 9mm qr on d rear hmm.gif

Ummm, if the BB breaks, I think you would have a wobbly crank... imho, dangerous...

but so far, i dont feel any wobbling or sound on d crank or BB..but d mechanic said it can damage d crank..he said d sealed bearing wont rotate coz of dirty stain from usage.. sweat.gif rclxub.gif rclxub.gif

well u can keep using it, n see if the mechanic/cyphereza is right.

the bearing is already damaged, just that it hasn't caused major failure yet. change it now before it affects other parts

i hope it doesnt affect anything before my budget is enuff for new parts sweat.gif

run it on some more. if it still squeals like the pig in Deliverance than replace the pads and wipe down the rotor with alcohol. the latter always works  biggrin.gif

try cleaning the pads and rotors first. i had similar problem, stock resin pads came with the bike. changed to sintered, not as noisy as before.

so far in pharmacies, i could only find methyl spirit. not recommended. best is to use isopropyl alchohol (rubbing alcohol). not sure if u can find it in the pharmacies. that's what i'm using now.

http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/me...-or-isopropanol

or u can use the brake cleaner like cyphereza suggests

btw, do u wash ur bike with car shampoo or the likes?

im using sunlight lol..dish washing soap sweat.gif

Bro, easier to just grab a can of Brakleen with Jet muzzle at Ace Hardware. Just spray the rotors and pads, and then leave it to dry. Don't need to wipe. thumbup.gif
Costs around RM11 IINM.
