Hi All:
I'm getting ready to build up my bike and was wondering if it is truly necessary to sqaure up the
bottom bracket face for the supposedly super touchy Dura Ace BB? I've read some reviews and "tips"
about needing an in-lb torque wrench and using loc tite on the cups and or lock rings. I finally
read the actual Shimano instructions and all it says is get it tight and then back off between 1/8
to 1/6 of a turn. The bike in question is a 2001 or 2002 compact S-Works in Festina colors with
paint on the BB face. Any help appreciated
thanks, Ernie
