Had to shake my head while working on this bike. In total there was probably 500ml of water in the frame..
When did you last change your BB Oil?

Don’t frames usually have holes below the BB to prevent that?
Well, there’s no 2nd bottle mount and I’ll be damned if I wear a camelbak 😀
BBs don’t need oil change. They use grease instead of oil and are prelubed for the designed life time.
Frames usually have a drain hole at the BB to prevent this. There is also a plastic tube with o-rings which seals very well. Maybe the drain hole was clogged?
But i wouldn’t be surprised if some stupid cube engineer forgot the drain hole in this frame design. Stupidity from bike engineers seem so multiply every two years since the late 2010s. Although this one looks to be from the early 2010s at most.
