just took my BB out to cheak it over, bought it 2 months ago only to find its flooded with water. this is what caused my last BB to die grr.
it is because there are no dranage holes in the bottem. iv tryed putting it upside down after cleaning and that only gets a small amount of water out.
the swing arm has 4 holes to let any water out but none in the main frame.
even my old scaracen x ile had 2 small holes in to let water out.
any ideas how i can stop this???
i dont want this voiding the 5 year warrenty on my crank bros BB

drill a 1/8" hole in the bottom of the bb.
the holes in the swing arm are actually to let the hot gasses out while the welding is done."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."
