2nd Gen profile box cranks.
« on: January 11, 2007, 08:24 AM »
just managed to sneak another pair, all painted black. but seems to be shiny undersidey....



now, they are arms only.  So, are the axles 19mm? like new profiles? IE, will a new profile spindle fit? ???

Get some heat on them first mr fruit and they should fly out (or leave them in Diesel for a week) both might work.

Take the body off the pedal & just try to heat the pedal spindle, this should not damage the Chrome on the arm :daumenhoch:

or use hot air gun might still just be enough (flames on the chrome would damage it)

im figuring that if i can bore out enough of the pedal spindle, it will heat it up anyway and send it wizzing out. if not, it a bit of manipulation with the junior hacksaw....

Another tip that might help, put the arms in the freezer for a couple of hours, then apply gentle heat (hairdryer) on the arms, I have used this to get bottom bracket shells in, so it should work the other way  :daumenhoch:
