  1. I have a 2005 Pinarello Paris with MOST bottom bracket( isis
    version ) installed and I would like to change this to be able to use
    either a Hollowtech II spindle or even better accomodate standard
    threaded BB cups. From what I understand this is an option available
    through changing special pinarello inserts. My questions:

    1) Disassembly instructions...where could I find them or is it as
    simple as tapping on the axle to "drive" the bearing out of the other
    side of the frame or do I need a press?

    2) Where is the best place to buy special pinarello BB inserts/axle to
    make the change?

    3) Any chance there are bearings on the market that would press fit
    into the frame that would accomodate a conventional integrated spindle
    crank and eliminate the special pinarello adapters? long shot I know.

    Any help is appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Kendall
