Left hand Flight Cranks ???????
« on: February 26, 2009, 03:09 PM »
I have just noticed on my ripper that the crank arms seem to be for the left hand side  ??? after all this time i have just noticed summat  :idiot2:
Every flight crank set i have seen always have the stamp and allen bolt on the top when the pedal is in the forward position but on mine they are visible when at the rear  :shocked: I remember seeing bikes (pictures) a few years ago where they had left hand drive bitd but i've never seen anything from redline  :-\
Anyone got any ideas  :) or do you thing it may be a mistake at the factory  :knuppel2:
Have a look and see what i mean , if you have flights of your own you will know what i'm talking about  ;)
If i was to take the drive side off and put it on the left the arms would have the writing (stamp) and allen bolt on top with the pedal forward and same for the none drive side  :buck2:

 :daumenhoch: the chainwheel boss is original as is the chrome of the arms so hasn't been added at a later date  ;)
