Roaches and bearings in the BB on a bike that came in today. Can you tell which is which? *Hint* there are 2 roaches

 This bike came into my old shop from Oregon with a bunch of live roaches in it. A bunch of them fell out before we filled the frame with isopropanol and set it on fire, and started reproducing. It took almost three weeks until (we think) they all died off. Gross.

 I was actually thinking it was rat poop in a bottom bracket. I was half right.

 That's a shitty pic, I can't really see much of anything, but it looks like the thing on the bottom right is a roach

 I bet if I stripped my road bike, I'd find a few of those. When I first got it, it was covered in spider eggs and cocoons

 But still, how do you get roaches in your bb?

 Those are hardy ball bearing eating roaches. They have lived their entire life in that bottom bracket from egg to adulthood eating bearings and drinking grease and rust water.
