Question about drilling that hole in the BB... you guys arent afraid of getting junk inside of the BB and bust the bearings?

you have to take the BB out an then drill the hole. I just did this to an old frame. It is a good idea to take it out and inspect the shell, clean and regrease.

Great tip! Thanks
