SAFETY INFORMATION – READ BEFORE RIDE

Since specific tools and experience are necessary for proper installation, it is recommended that the product be installed by a qualified bicycle technician.
Read the service instructions for your crank carefully prior to installing the parts. Loose, worn or damaged parts may cause riding problems and serious injury may occur as a result. If installation and adjustments are not carried out correctly, the chain may come off and this may cause you to fall off the bicycle which could result in serious injury. Read
these instructions carefully, and keep them for later use.

• Ensure that your frame shell is clean.
• Before riding the bicycle, check that there is no play or looseness in the bottom bracket connection. Also, be sure to retighten the crankarms and pedals at periodic intervals.
• If you feel any looseness or ‘play’ in the bearings, the bottom bracket should be inspected/replaced.
• Be sure to read the instructions for your front chainrings/crank in conjunction with these service instructions.
• Do not wash the bottom bracket with high-pressure jets of water.
• For maximum performance, it is required to remove and periodically inspect/clean your Praxis Works bottom bracket.
• Parts are not guaranteed against natural wear and tear resulting from normal use.

BB CUP PREPARATION

NON-DRIVE/LEFT CUP

1. DO NOT remove the included PF sleeve on this cup. This sleeve must be on the BB for correct installation 
2. Grease both ends of the PF sleeve contact surfaces

DRIVE/RIGHT CUP

1. Slide the Black Plastic Sleeve and then the Orange Rubber Collet onto the cup. This is critical to the function of your BB
2. Apply a thin coating of anti-seize to the Right/Drive cup threads
3. Apply a thin coating of grease to the outside of the Orange Rubber Collet and Black Plastic Sleeve

BOTTOM BRACKET INSTALLATION

1. With a press tool, GENTLY press the Left/Non-Drive cup into the Left/Non-Drive side of the frame. The edge of the BB should just BARELY touch the bike frame
2. Start threading the Right/Drive Cup in CLOCKWISE with your M30 BB tool. As it threads in, you will feel friction build as the Orange Rubber Collet expands inside the frame. This is normal. TURN Right/Drive Cup UNTIL IT STOPS, but do not fully tighten

With the 2nd M30 BB tool, hold the Left/Non-Drive  Cup in place while you tighten Drive cupful. The 2nd tool gives you leverage so you feel when the Drive cup bottoms out on the Non-Drive cup
The Drive Cup has a machined stop and by design, it MUST be tightened until it bottoms out on the Non-Drive cup. This precisely sets/stops the Collet expansion

See the next page to find the correct Dust Covers for your crank. Lightly grease the underside of Dust Covers and place them over bearings with Praxis logos facing outward. Now you can  install the crank
BB REMOVAL

1. Unscrew the Right/Drive Cup COUNTER-CLOCKWISE and remove. Use one tool to hold the Left side for leverage, and the other to unscrew the Drive cup
2. Once the Drive Cup is removed, slide a headset cup removal tool through from the drive side and it will catch the outside edge of the Non-Drive cup
3. Carefully bracing the tool and frame, very gently hammer/tap the removal tool to push the Non-Drive  Cup out of the frame
   We recommend using a 1.5” headset cup removal tool (photo) as it has a wide stance
