    Saracen Kili Team Resto-mod

The chainset, chain, cassette and jockey wheels were worn out. Headset had shredded bits of ball bearings in it. Had an odd set of wheels on...

    123mm English 68mm The BB-CS20 could be asymmetric so a modern sealed cartridge one may need to be different size. Here's a photo of it apart. The adapter cup (black plastic) goes on the drive side and the steel cup / shell goes on the non-drive side.

    Sold Deore DX Groupset and Wheels £100 SOLD !

    Hi, thanks for the interest. I'd prefer collection as I don't have any packaging large enough for the wheels and I wouldn't want them getting lost or damaged in transit.

    Shimano BB-CS20 bottom bracket unable to assemble

I used a long spark plug socket...

    Shimano FC-M569 Bottom Bracket Length?

    Saracen Kili-Team Ritchey Needle Bearing Headset Lower Race Replacement

    Having looked at the headset more closely the top race is really worn, the cage that held the bearings had broken in half, the rollers in the bottom race are quite worn too and one is completely missing. I'll fit a new headset, but not a Fuzzy Logic one.
