STEP 7: PRELOAD THE BEARINGS
IMPORTANT: Do not use the extraction spanner to tighten the bearing
preload nut at this point. This would overload the bearings and lead to
premature wear.
001: Unscrew the preload screw by hand until it comes into contact with
the bottom bracket bearing shield.
002: There should be no visible gap between the preload nut and the
bearing shield.
003: Using a 2.5mm Allen key, tighten the preload nut pinch bolt.
