Hi,

Can anyone tell me how I know which tool I need to get to remove the BB from my frame? I believe my BB is a 'FSA BB-7420ST' if anyone happens to know? It appears to need some sort of internal splined tool, but its hard to tell without taking the cranks off (I know I will have to take them off anyway, but wanted to order a crank puller and the BB tool at the same time).

Thanks.

    Sounds like you just need a standard Shimano pattern splined BB tool, eg

    Thanks Keef,

    That certainly looks like it'd do the job. Wasn't sure if there are different sizes/no. of splines etc... or if they're pretty much 'standard'.

    Have tried the FSA website but don't seem to have info on the their BBs, just every other component they sell!
