  • Establish what BB you have.

    BMX
    Euro (MTB)
    Spanish (press in bearings)

    Then post back

    There are adaptors/convertors out there, the one piece is often called an 'american' and is of a large diameter so you need something to reduce this. Have a look at the bmx sites and component makers.

    Why are MTB economics; spend twice as much as you intended, but only half as much as you wish you could afford? :roll:

    FFS BMX one piece and BMX 3 piece are the SAME.

    you dont need this or that or anything.
