Good afternoon everybody I have a question to ask if you please. My campy bottom bracket's bearings are knackered after only 4 months so I now want to change them for skf bearings. Unfortunately I'm not sure which ones to get. Can anyone please help. This is the bottom bracket I have.

    Best thing is to get them out and measure them... if you can't get them out, you won't be able to fit new ones in... that's for sure.
    You need outer and inner diameter and width... use a vernier to measure and not a tape

    Ultratorque uses a narrow, non-standard bearing so make sure you get the right size
    Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..

    Correct me if I'm wrong but that looks like an older taper fit BB which Campagnolo no longer produces as their new cranks use an outboard bearing system that is press fitted to the crank arms themselves. I don't think that the BB you have was meant to be taken apart for bearing change but you may find someone who has done it or figure it out yourself. You can still find Campagnolo BB's or after-market copies on places like ebay. The record model would also fit. Or you can make a major investment with a Phil Wood or Royce that you're almost certainly never going to have to replace.
