BB - Binding
#1
Recently had new bike built and had it serviced. Noticed that the mechanic tightened down the crank and afterwards the SRAM ceramic BB felt tighter and not as fluid as when I got the bike. not sure if there is a relation of the crank being tighten to the bb being bound up. Any thoughts/ suggestions?

Probably take it back to the mech and have him adjust it accordingly
Good maintenance to your Bike, can make it like the wheels are, true and smooth!
