▼HELP SECTION

Bottom Bracket Thread Type - this must match the thread of your bottom bracket for the lockring to fit.

Thread Direction - most bottom brackets only have an adjustable cup on the non-driveside of the bike, so lockrings mostly thread to the right (clockwise), regardless of the thread type. However, some bottom brackets have adjustable cups on both sides so the thread direction may be different.

Thickness - this is rounded to the nearest 0.5 mm.
