Full details
The UNIOR BB30 & DUB Removal Tool is designed for cyclists and mechanics who need to remove non-threaded BB30 and Sram DUB bottom brackets without risking frame damage. Its key benefit is the hammer-free, safe extraction process using dedicated pullers.

FAQs
Can this tool be used for threaded bottom brackets?
No, this tool is specifically designed for non-threaded press-fit bottom brackets like BB30 and Sram DUB. It cannot be used on threaded bottom brackets.
What is the difference between the 30mm and 29mm pullers?
The 30mm puller is for the BB30 standard, which typically has bearings with a 30mm inner diameter. The 29mm puller is specifically designed for Sram DUB press-fit bottom brackets.
Will this tool work with all 30mm spindle bottom brackets?
The 30mm puller is compatible with many bottom bracket standards that use bearings with a 30mm internal diameter. However, it's always best to confirm compatibility with your specific bottom bracket model.
How do I prevent scratching my bike frame?
The tool features a rubber O-ring designed to protect the frame. Ensure this O-ring is properly seated and undamaged before use. Keep the tool and frame clean to avoid grit causing damage.
Do I need any other tools to use this removal tool?
While the UNIOR BB30 & DUB Removal Tool performs the extraction, you may need other standard bike tools like a torque wrench for installation of a new bottom bracket and potentially a press for installation.
How often should I clean the tool?
It is recommended to clean the tool after each use with a dry cloth to remove grease and debris. This will help maintain its performance and longevity.
Troubleshooting
Tool not engaging properly with bottom bracket
Ensure you are using the correct size puller for your bottom bracket standard. Check that the frame's bottom bracket shell is clean and free of obstructions.
Difficulty removing bottom bracket
Apply steady, even pressure. If the bottom bracket is seized, consider using a frame preparation tool or contacting a professional mechanic. Ensure the puller is seated correctly.
Frame is getting scratched
Verify that the rubber O-ring is correctly in place and undamaged. Ensure no grit or debris is caught between the tool and the frame.
