Press Fit Bottom Bracket

stephenlovatt

Hi all,
Can anyone advise me on how to remove & fit a new press fit bottom bracket? I need to change mine on a Lappierre Zesty but if I need specialist tools would it woth just taking it to my LBS and letting them do it.
Can anyone offer any advice?
Cheers, Steve.

depending on the actuall press fit BB you have it varies slightly.

Parktools shows how for both versions.

a set of headset tools is needed.

or a bearing fitter/remover.

Thanks for that, may just take it to bike shop & save the cost of buying the tools.
