I need to fit a BB92 press fit bb, how should I go about doing this?

Can you just do it using a headset press?[/i]

    Maybe. The Park Tools headset press needs a pair of bushings to fit the BB, so I'd assume other ones do too.

    I just carefully lined the cups up then used a large g clamp to press it in working my way round the sides to ensure it goes in straight then repeat for the bearings. If your clamp is big enough pop a block of wood between the clamp and it should go in in one go if lined up correctly.
