I'm a self-teaching geek. teaching because that process is far from over. I don't know a ton, but what I know, I'll share, and I won't answer a question if I'm not confident I'm correct.

Does frame size inside a particular model affect the ride characteristics of the bike? Actually, those things are exactly what progressive frame designs are all about. |

Why don't road bikes use v-brakes? And that, while what you say is true in that if you were redesigning a v-brake from the ground up, you might be able to make one work, that would be a new brake. Not the existing design under discussion. |

Where can I find a square tapered bottom bracket for my TREK Navigator 200? Two weeks, to order a part is not out of line. It can take 6-8 weeks. If you need your bike, and the BB is still in condition to ride, ask the shop to put it back together while you wait for the part. And a basic quality BB of this type should cost 30-50 dollars at a shop, plus labor to install. Not exactly highwy robbery. |

Where can I find a square tapered bottom bracket for my TREK Navigator 200? To point you in the right direction: Trek doesn't make bottom brackets. They buy them, usually from Shimano. Your bike has an english thread, probably 68mm BB shell, and will us either a 68x113mm or 68x118mm cartridge BB. Most good shops will have these in stock, but they are not used on new bikes anymore, so they are getting more difficult to find. |

Where can I find a square tapered bottom bracket for my TREK Navigator 200? This seems to be more rant than question. What is it you actually want to know? You say there was no part number on it. You haven't listed sizes or pictures. Try editing the question until there is a question to be answered. |
