|   To drill or not to drill... | bones
Feb 13, 2002 9:59 PM | | I'm tired of taking my crankarm off every time I want to adjust my eccentric. Would the strength of the eccentric be weakened if I drilled a hole in it so that I can leverage with a screwdriver and my crankarm?
Any thoughts?

Feb 14, 2002 6:46 AM | | Actually, it's a flaw in that type of e-BB (set-screw style), not the e-BB solution itself. My Bushnell e-BB is a wedge-type that uses a single 4mm allen bolt on the non-driveside to loosen/tighten the e-BB (see pic). This can be done without removing the cranks!

| what kind of EBB are you using? | tamjam
Feb 14, 2002 7:12 AM | | I'm using a Haden and adjusting it couldn't be easier. It's just got a little hole on the non-drive side that I use a 5mm allen key to spin the EBB around in the shell. |

Feb 14, 2002 7:22 AM | | They make their own eccentrics in-house. I think I'm going to take it to a metal shop and have them drill a hole like that one.
