My son has a Mongoose mode 180 and his bearings are bad. He said he needs a bottom bracket set, but I'm not too sure if this is what he needs or if it's something else. Is this the right one?Any help would be appreciated.

Bottom bracket installation requires specialized tools. So even if you are able to find the propper size BB you would still need to buy the tooling. That's not very cost effective for something you're only going to do one time. I would weigh out the cost of taking it to a bike shop against the price of a new bike. Good luck

I first started with a bearings upgrade, which totally changed the feel of the board, then I threw on a set of Gullwing Sidewinder II Trucks, I don't recommend those trucks in particular due to having two kingpins, and the board has a big disadvantage with wheelbite with these trucks, and a bit of speed wobbles. I suggest a set of Paris' or something of the like. First, I'd start with bearings, and just work from there:)

My first suggestion is to read all the previous answers on the UN55 before you attempt to replace your bottombracket assembly. If you can remove the spindle, look to see if the specifications of the spindle are embossed on the spindle itself. For example, my Shimano spindle has specifications of 68 - 122.5 embossed on it, the smaller number is the bottom bracket bearing tube width and the larger number is the actual spindle length. Then select the UN55 sealed bearing BB that is the closest to your measurements.

I have a airdyne I purchased in 1992. It is also loud when pedaling ,I have 38,000 miles on it and have replaced several wedge pins and crank brackets over the years. I completely disassembled it and lubricated and adjusted everything. the bottom bracket is good. It was quieter for several days and is getting louder each ride! I'm at a loss how to quiet it down.I just shut my door and crank up my headphones.

Hi Mary, I think you need one that is specified for a 3 piece crank. Search 3 piece bottom bracket which Amazon displays and you should find the correct one. Research you bike model referencing the crank as well. Hope this helps. Greg

@Austin the bearing were about the same quality as the reds bearings. Really the only difference was that they were yellow instead of red. Also the board came with yellow moranga wheels instead of yellow stims. Lastly, the bushings were garbage, but overall I like the board. It takes a little while to adjust to, but still good for tricks and pretty fun

The 19B is designed for 2" Outside Diameter (OD) bearing assemblies. Sizing of the Bearing Buddy is not determined by tire/rim sizes. Check OD of your bearings.

These brackets are designed for a HD Heritage Softail and fit my bike great. CycleVisions has a customer service number and they are very helpful. You will find the best answer from them.

Hello Laura, The bottom bracket is reverse threaded so it does not come loose when pedaling. As far as the size wrench you need i'm not 100% but you could use a crescent wrench to loosen the nut. We do not manufacturer this bottom bracket so I do not know the exact size mm for the ball bearings. let me know if this info helps you at all. Thank you!

You need to buy a longer BB to account for it. I'm going through the same issue. What I haven't seen a comment on is how this affects the non-drive side. Would you notice it when pedaling, especally if you "clip-in". This chart gives you the symetrical equivalent - http://sheldonbrown.com/bbsize.html . My 3T spindle would need a 130 symetrical BB.

You may have to mount the front bracket to seat clamp if you don't have mounting holes, I have a mongoose 29er mounted to stock seat clamp with a thin washer works great, you may have to buy a different seat clamp depending on your bike.

This kind of bottom bracket is different than the older type with two separate bearings. it's referred to as J.I.S. Japanese industrial standard. I used a little heat on the BB to be easy on the tool and it worked for me.

No, you need MTD part # 984-04253-0637. This is for a left hand drive and the bearings won't line up. There is one listed from MTD for yours for $88 that comes with 2 bearings right now, that's a solid deal!

I did both only because I am keeping the vehicle at least another 50K miles. You can do them one at a time with no issues. Just keep in mind the other side works just as hard and has just as many miles on it. To me, half the work is getting setup just to do the work. Make the time, get the tools out and so on. Just a little more time to both if you can afford it. These are great bearings. As for the no-name brands, just say no thanks.
