Bottom Bracket Question - Boardman Team
Just picked up a Boardman Team frame...
Looking at the bottom bracket area, one side seems to have a bearing in & the other does not... Am I right in thinking to install a new BB I need to remove the existing bearing & start from scratch? How is the best way to get the remaining bearing out if that's the case?
Sorry if this seems a daft question, im still very new to road bikes. Heres pics of what im talking about:

Also, will any BB30 bottom bracket fit? I looked on you tube videos and they seem to simply screw in, but the frame doesn't have any threads? Confused!

a BB30 BB is only apair of bearings.
they are press fit.
read the info on Parktools."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."
