I recently replaced my Capy Centaur 53/39 with a compact. I had the funky
Centaur BB, and took it by the bike shop to have them break it loose. When
they did, water poured out on the floor. I looked underneath the BB and on
the chainstays, and there are no drain holes.
First, I avoid riding in the rain, but I occasionally get caught in it.
Next, it appears there are some decent size holes around the water bottle
mounts.
The bike has had about 2000 miles of opportunity to collect water, so how
did it get in? How should I get it out, and how should I keep it out?
PS - it's an all-aluminum frame, if you want to suggest drilling...
