At 29:20 there are generally 9 balls assembled in a small steel cage or 11 free balls like you found, it must have been already rebuilt one time. When the ball races are a little worn, 11 balls is a better solution. Just a little play will break the small steel cages and the dirt and water coming from the saddle open tube and sides doesn't help. Balls are common Ø 1/4" = 6.35 mm.
That bottom bracket had at least another 3 weeks of functioning left. Edit: What kind of shit show am I watching??? Can we pay him to buy a new bicycle AND stop him from making these videos?
The entertainment value of this video is undeniable! LOL!!
I always enjoying watching you videos , I also learn something new every time 👍 Thumps up 👍 From Denmark
Thanks, but do excuse the length :) I'll try to make shorter videos.
Lmao, nothing more fun than looking at some meaty old school hammering on the bikes!

I can remember coter pins costing 2 1/2 p mid 1970s & brake blocks.
hahaha i like it. new subs!
Unfortunate but entertaining! Nearly 14 mins of a struggle for turning wrong way.😅
I'm impressed with the clogs footwear. I never liked working with cotter pins. But then I never liked working with bottom brackets in general.
Bottom bracket: right side left hand thread, left side right hand thread. Basic bicycle knowledge...
He must be Italian.
Or French.
