What are people using when pressing in a nylon cup bottom bracket (ie Shimano XT) into a carbon frame.
Are people using a basic grease or one of the fancy anti-seize compounds? Or just dry and clean?

To clarify... Not tools... rather any substances to help avoid the dreaded creak but also ensure it will actually come out one day...
Can you have both???

Yeah ol man, we used to use sardine tins for shoes as well. Get with the times. I reckon i could do a crank bros rear wheel for less than that for you. BargainWas only 18 months ago, full retail on F/R hope hoops (pro4 on either hope or stans) was $650 delivered, and sometimes on sale for around $400

Better I pay the $1500 for CB new? Works out to about $70 per km they survive.

Light grease works about as well an anything you really just want to stop galvanic corrosion on the surfaces - if however you want to stop the creak permanently you buy the threaded bottom bracket that will fit a press fit frame - like from praxis or wheels manufacturing.

To be honest I haven't had a creak yet with my RF BB but the bearings have died.....
About to replace with XT as at $32 they're pretty much a consumable....
Just wasn't sure if anything needed for nylon on carbon

You aren't good at maths...1500 divided by 1 is 1500.
