Todd,

What make is the BB?? How many flats does it have?? The "usual Stronglight subjects" are 38mm which works out pretty nicely for a 6 point 1 1/2" socket - of course such a socket may cost more than a bottom bracket!

Best,

Can someone tell me the tool I need to remove the fixed or drive side cup on a French Bottom Bracket? None of my bottom bracket tools are right and the large crescent wrench isn't large enough either.
Thanks
