MID & Spanish Bottom Bracket..

[Peter J]

What’s the difference 

Apart from the bearing dimensions   

[Dannywhac]

Just the bearing dimensions Pete Same setup as the Mid.

[Peter J]

Thank you

Looking at your chain pic your bike might have a spanish bb with mid size cups, the bottom bracket shell might not be machined internally to accept mid bearing on their own

If you're thinking of changing the cranks?

[Peter J]

Betty, just found the bike spec's says its a spanish 

[Dannywhac]

Does look a bit like there's cups in there - only one way to see - lets have a piccy of the non-drive side

[Peter J]

Here we go 

[Peter J]

I know Bru 

looks like Isabella's going to be on bread and water for the rest of the week 

[Dannywhac]

No cups there  Bearings straight into the BB

[Peter J]

There the original eastern ones that came with the bike 

When my new ones turn up if anyone has a kid who wants a set of chrome 175 cranks they can have em

39 will do Bru, but a 38 will be pretty much the same as 44/16 on a bmx
