What size is my bottom bracket for a Nishiki Kinzua 29 Men's Mountain Bike
hi if i remember correctly to size up for a bottom bracket, flip your bike upside down resting on handle bars and seat carefully not to damage anything, and where the bottom bracket go's through the frame of the bike you take a tape measure and measure the width of only the frame housing where the bottom bracket go's into this is a lot easier to do when the crank arms are removed. also on some bottom brackets when removed from the bike has all the data stamped on it depending on the type of bottom bracket. if not measure the width of the frame where the bottom bracket sits in too and that will be the size of the bottom bracket you need, then determine which type it is once you have remove the cranks arm which are attached to the bottom bracket could be splined drive or square tapered type bottom bracket basically the shape of the metal part that the crank arms push and bolt on to then match up on a cycle part website.
How do u get a Schwinn electroglide s600 to start back up after I slammed on the breaks and now it won't move
Start with the basics. Is it the correct key? (If it needs one). Is the scooter actually turned on? (YES, I've done that!). Are you using the correct starting method? Is it fully charged?
Does this bike have a battery pack you can remove to charge? If yes turn the scooter off, remove the battery pack, check there is no dirt in the battery tray and firmly refit the battery.
You description suggests you might have 'bounced' the batteries. Basically the sudden stop has caused the batteries to move slightly tripping the safety cut out. There are 2 types of safety cut out. Push button and fuse.
For the push button type look carefully at the battery case on the scooter, is there a small red button somewhere on it? Yes? Turn the scooter OFF and leave it alone for 10 minutes. Then with the scooter turned OFF press and hold the red button firmly and release it. Turn on the scooter, it should work correctly.
For the fuse type there will a small plastic block somewhere in the wire close to the batteries. This will have either a flat blade fuse or a traditional cylinder fuse. They are usually really cheap so you could change it anyway.
REMEMBER Always replace fuses with one that is EXACTLY the same 'A' rating (Amps). They are usually colour coded to make it easier.
