Hi folks.

I have this bike > https://www.thebikelist.co.uk/specializ ... rt-29-2012

I am converting it to 10 speed and have managed to wreck the bottom bracket attempting to remove the crank with the 5p coin trick. :oops:

Which bottom bracket do i need to replace it please?

Also where is best (cheapest!) to buy in the UK?

Thanks in advance.
