Carbon bike, loose bottom bracket

Geocap · 07-22-2010, 05:22 PM

I have a carbon bike with a Campy Ultratorque crankset. There is a tiny amount of play between the bearing cups and bottom bracket shell. The bearing cups are tight, my only conclusion is that the aluminum sleeve not quite completely bonded into the shell. Can I lay in some epoxy resin to make a good repair?
Regards, George
