    Your 1st MTB

    A Townsend Titan, from Makro! It lasted 4.5 months before the thread in the bottom bracket completely stripped and I had to get a refund. Whoever thought making a bike from 2000 series aluminium was a good idea???

    RetroBIKE general guide to stubborn bottom bracket removal

    This worked a treat for me today on an old Orange Clockwork frame, although, I did have to make a 40 mile round trip to my parents place to get some of the tools. Also big un-respect to my LBS (559 Cycles in Chepstow) who charged my £5 for being unable to get it out.....
