My square tapered bottom bracket (stbb) is 68/122.5. I have an old 1999 Specialized Hardrock that uses a VERY primitive looking stbb (like ball bearings, and couple of rings) that looks nothing like on the picture. Would it still work?

I had a similar setup before switching over with no problems... BEST move I made was switching from the old to the UN55 Shimano BB...

I put this one on a cheaper Huffy mountain bike with a solid straight shaft and a bearing set on either side! It was a great upgrade and worked perfect. Very simple to install and I think it should work on your bike with problem.

Sounds like you currently have an 'adjustable BB' and upgrading to a cartridge BB is certainly a move in the right direction,chances are it will work, and if not, send it back.....no biggie....good luck.

We are taling about the Threaded rods lenght...You get half inch on each side, which means you get a wider wheel base...it is the distance of the width. (you will get a wider wheel stand in 10 inch).What are you building? what are you putting these things on? you may also need to buy separate rubber bushings to adjust the stiffness of this truck..it is a double king pin and once it loosens up, you may need tougher rubber so that you dont loose as much stability at highers speeds..Im very happy with teh 10 incer on what I build...give me a shout I can give you loads more info on this stuff..i had to learn a lot when i build my board...i can send you some pics etc. eugen.cg@gmail.comBlessings We are taling about the Threaded rods lenght...You get half inch on each side, which means you get a wider wheel base...it is the distance of the width.

if you have the old style or AMERICAN style, that is NOT threaded inside the frame, punch out the races and use the TRUVATIV BB conversion! YOU WILL BE VERY HAPPY YOU DID! There are a TON of videos on how to do this, check out bikeman (I think that is his youtube handle) and you wont be let down! JUST MAKE SURE YOU INSTALL THE DRIVE SIDE PROPERLY AND LINE UP THE CONVERSION BEFORE YOU SEAT IT INTO THE FRAME! The screws to the conversion will pull it TIGHT but make sure it is in far enough to not strip the screws or adapter! THIS BB is one of the best values in the industry! I dont recommend any UNDER this model, even though they are VERY RELIABLE. THIS is a small price to pay and while you are there, I recommend an upgrade to your crank set to bring you an upgrade that will breath life into that nice HARDROCK! IF YOUR FRAME IS ALREADY THREADED, no worries, this should work!

This crank set is for a square taper bottom bracket. I bought an Avenir Octalink Crank Puller from Amazon.

the specs on that area a 44 to 48 tooth outer ring, the main thing is also its a 9 speed, I had a seven speed rear sprocket, didn't work for me, so be sure and check your rear sprocket. Then look for a 3 x ?, whatever you have, then you should be ok.

9/16 is most likely referring to the size of the wrench needed to use this crank puller. I would recommend using an adjustable wrench with this crank puller. This crank puller should work if your bottom bracket is square taper.

As important as verifying that it has square bottom-bracket fitting, which it likely has, is making SURE the gear-teeth/ratios numbers match..whatever your old one is, it will create problems and more work if you try to fit one smaller or larger number of teeth, the front derailleur will not be in the right position and adjustment for a start...if your largest cog is 42T, you will be easier off with another with 42T, best to get the middle gear the same such as 34T or 32T, as well.

Got home to late tonight to look and measure the outside width. This came to our family account. If you still need the information send me a note to my e-mail. It's oldbiker66@yahoo.com in the subject line mention it's from amazon question.

I can't help you. You may want to take the bike to a bike shop and see what they say. You will probably have to take the old one out and measure it to be sure.

Yeah just count the number of teeth and make sure it's a square taper bottom bracket (it most likely will be).

No it's not tapered. Straight 1 1/8. Great fork for the price. If you want tapered you will need to move up to one of the Reba models. The Reba come in tapered and straight.

I really think it depends on your chainstay clearance, chainring and crank arms. What I did to figure that out was to use websites like this one: http://sheldonbrown.com/chainline.html to figure out what length bottom bracket best worked for my bike. If you are running a triple, you should be at 45 (I'm assuming you are because you specifically asked about a chainline of 45), but a double should be 43.5mm...and on and on depending on your bike and gearing. You can also adjust the spacers on the back axle as well, but this shouldn't be necessary if you know that your rear (sprocket end) is at 45mm, which is what you are trying to achieve (explained here: http://www.velodromeshop.net/index.php?p=page&page_id=chainline). Sorry, not an easy yes or no answer. Just check those sites out and do the measurements and you should be ok. Hope I helped...good luck!

i put the Burly Slammer kit (B28-1000) on my 1992 HD 1200 Sportster and I love it!!! Here's the deal though, i had clearance issues with my back tire scrapping the bolts on the inside of my rear fender after i lowered it, and i was really frustrated with it. So, instead of trying to return it (since i tried them on and technically used it even though it didn't really fit) i decided to reverse the bolt heads on my rear fender strut brackets to where the heads are inside the fender rather than the bolt ends and i had to modify my rear turn signal mounting bracket as well. If i would have know this would happen, i probably would've paid a little extra and got the progressive ones instead...BUT, your bike is a 2001 which is 9 years younger than mine so i would think it's safe to assume the kit would fit your bike much easier than mine. My friend has a 2009 and he has the Slammer Kit as well and his fits perfectly with no mods necessary. The ride is much stiffer than stock, but it's not bad at all and really, if you lower your bike expect to have a stiff ride. it's easy to install if you have a couple of people to help and you're somewhat mechanically inclined as we installed it ourselves with no issues. If you're looking for a good price, DIY quick and easy, one size fits most, with a pretty good ride then i would recommend this product.

My base is round and it fits fine. It also has the numbers 1020 on the bottom, if that makes any difference, not sure.

there should be a label on the bottombraccet itself with all the specs on it. if you cant find the info on the specialized web site the simplest is to remove the bottom bracket and take the info from there.
