Flite cranks fitting - is it difficult?

How hard/ easy is it to fit a set of Flite cranks? Do I need any specialist equipment?
Or, am I as well, taking the frame and crank to a good, independent local bike shop and having them do the business?
Many thanks.

no pretty easy - but setting them up on the chain line can be a little bit of a pain - depends if you want to ride the bike or look at it.

The only issue ive ever had with them is getting the Chain ring in line - but it just needs a little bit time and patience and normally all fine... though if i had a choice Profiles any day....

Thanks Crooch.
Does anyone have an installation guide, or is there one on here already?

forgive me for being stupid.....but the chainwheel alignment is all down to having a few spacers or not on the crank spindle.........surely this is an issue with whatever crank you fit, be it flights or Profile?
never had a problem with my flights
