Ask the expert: bottom brackets

Hello,
Next week I'm starting a thread (it'll be in the BikeRadar Office sub-forum; I'll post a link below) in which you'll be able to speak to our technical editor James Huang (aka Angry Asian) – you may have read some of his reviews or his AngryAsian column on the main site. The thread will be called: Ask the Expert.
James has been with us for more than ten years and is an absolute AUTHORITY on all things bike, and in particular, the subject of bottom brackets (be kind now...). He's travelled the world examining all manner of bikes, inspected many bike factories, attended pretty much every bike show, has contacts throughout the industry, has reviewed everything and you can put him to the test, or get him to answer your query.
If anyone has a question on bottom brackets or something similar (we'll run more sessions on other areas depending on how this works out), please feel free to ask him and he'll reply to everyone. Hopefully he can pass on some good advice.
As it'll be a forum thread he won't be answering instantaneously but as he gets a chance each day. So fear not, as he'll be answering stuff all week in case you do wish to question him.
Cheers,
Gregor
