Bottom Bracket?

[Q2DM1]

Hi,
I noticed a bit of crunching while commuting today, ao had a look when I got home and the crank has quite a lot of side-to-side play (the whole thing, both sides). I've done around 4000 miles on it to date, so am I right in thinkiing it's probably the bottom bracket that needs renewing? If so, could anyone point me to the correct one to buy for a Woosh Rio MTB? I use it daily, so would like to be able to get the part before stripping it and replacing it in one go.
Thanks

Have you tried contacting Woosh? They normally have spares for their bikes.

the Rio MTB has Prowheel GXP Road (BC1.37x24T road) bottom bracket.
You may need to buy a new set of ballbearings. Read the inscription on the side of the ballbearings to be sure.

You can buy them on the net or at any cycle shop but do contact support if you are not sure.
It's very simple to replace them, but you need a tool like this:

Thanks for the quick reply. I've got a tool, so I'll have a quick gander before I order. Cheers
