What grease to use on bearings in bottom bracket?
« on: September 01, 2009, 06:35 PM »
As title says really, what grease should I use for the bearings in the bottom bracket? I've got loads of automotive grease, or should I use something like Copperslip?

Should I use grease when pressing the bearing cups into the frame or press them in dry?

Apologies if this is a crap question, this is my 1st build!
