• I am also replacing my Fuji track stock BB, but with a Phil BB. Happy with the installation part as that is documented on the Phil website (as long as I can track down the Phil BB tools), but it is removing the stock BB that has me a bit confused:

    1) Can I use the Park BBT-22 Shimano and ISIS Drive tool to remove the FSA Alloy BB? My research indicates that FSA may use something called "Power Drive" but I'm not sure if this is the same as ISIS Drive... Do I need one or two of these tools for removal/installation (as the BB will be used for another bike)?
    2) Do I also need a crank extractor? I was under the (possibly naive) impression that the FSA cranks would just slide off the BB spindle when the bolts are removed?

    Yes, you'll need a crank remover. You'll get plenty of use out of it if you intend to fix track-type bikes though, so don't worry. I have a Condor own-brand one, which has been fine.

    For the BB removal, I didn't have the tool, but noticed that the BB itself protrudes slightly from the BB shell. Cut two flats opposite each other with a hacksaw (being careful not to hit the BB shell) and you can remove it using a large adjustable spanner. I was delighted when I worked that out, as I'd no intention of reusing the BB or installing anything that uses the same tool, so it'd have been money for a one-use tool.
