Fits: PF30, 386EVO
BB Size: 30mm ID, 46mm OD
This tool is designed to press the cups in which the bearings are housed, it is therefore suitable for any 30mm ID cup-fit bottom bracket.
If you are installing cups into a new frame, you may choose to install one cup at a time. One of the PF30 plates has a step on the rear which makes it sit inside the empty BB shell of the frame, allowing you to fit the first bearing (this is our own unique design). Install the second cup separately.
Please contact us if you are unsure which kind of press fit bottom bracket you have; there are many different standards and even conversion BBs to change from one standard to another (eg to fit 24mm Shimano cranks in a BB30 frame etc). Fortunately we are experts and we have a wide range of tools available to cover almost every standard.
Our bearing press tools are available in standard form (2x 19mm spanners required), or with our exclusive Pro long handles, or just buy the press plates if you already have another Burton Bikes tool or another 12mm press.
DO NOT attempt to install press fit bearings without specific press plates; you will be pressing against the wrong part of the bearing if you use simple flat plates or washers. Cheaper versions on eBay will push against the wrong part of the BB and you will cause damage to your bearings.
