Shimano BB Spares?

Darkstalker420

Hi i'm doing a "cheap" fixer up for a mate and at the moment he has a knackered ISIS BB (rode it with a lose crank bolt and chewed the spline up in the crank :roll: ). I have looked in my spare bits box and found an old Shimano crank and compatable Shimano cart BB. However i can't locate the other part of the BB the screw in plastic/metal cup from the other (non drive side?).

The BB is almost new (infact it feels better than the new one i got from CRC a few weeks ago!!? :shock: ) so it would be a shame if i had to buy another one but i can't seem to locate a Shimano part (CRC have some RaceFace parts that look like they MIGHT fit although they say it's for an ISIS BB) but i don't want to order just in case!

Any ideas??

Thanks.

What shimano crankset? I presume HT2 from your description and you want the preload adjuster?

Just need to look!

He says cartridge BB so presumably the non drive cup - something like this

Sorry should have been more specific :oops:. I will be swapping back to square taper from the ISIS spline. The crank is an old Shimano Alivio one. I have included a pic with the part i need marked.

Thanks.

Pick a size

Probably cheaper and easier just to buy a new one

Make sure the BB axel is the correct length for the cranks.

Thanks for all the help seems like it would be better just to get a new one as mentioned.

Thanks.

Sorry to hi-jack but i have a quick question regarding hollowtech 2 spares, can you get the little clear/black plastic tube that connects both cups anywhere as a spare?

Could get a deore chainset for a steal but it has the tube missing, im assuming its the cartridge? Fleabay doesnt seem to have any ?
