I especially like the tips you share on maintaining your bikes for the salty conditions you cycle in.<br />This brings me to my question. I have a VP bottom bracket and would like to change the bearings. I read that you did this and replaced with SKF. First I have removed the old bearing but had to use a vice and hammer. The central collar is now bent. Do I need to replace this? As you can see I do not really know what I am doing but would like to learn. I guess I am trying to persuade you to do a blog post on this as I think it is a worthwhile task. I am not a fan of external BB's and getting square taper in larger sizes is getting harder.<br />Any help would be greatly appreciated. Oh I do not have a fat bike (yet) but do own three Surly's (Troll, LHT and Big Dummy). All best and hope you are keeping well.
