Hello,
Maybe I didn't look hard enough but can anyone give tips about rebuilding/greasing the big bearing that is right above the Bb on this bike? Its a big nut and I don't want to make a mess but I'm certain it needs some grease!
thanks for any help

    If it's that bad you'll probably need to replace the bearings. Is there any play?

  • Hi John,

    Thanks for the concern.
    I got into it and sorted this out now.
    Spicy Zesty model years 2008 - 2011 consist of 6 cartridge bearings in total.
    4 x 6802
    2 x 6902

    Voila!
