The good and the bad

Wildeman · 09-20-2003, 06:10 AM

I just got some nice new pedals from bikeroom(Azonic Fusions) and when I put them on I strip my nice cranks.

I also got some redbull

Does anyone else have crank stripping problems. Probably just me.

Oh well.

shitty, they're reverse thread you know...my 12 year old brother did that to his p.o.s norco

not me tho

you may be able to fix the cranks also

if the threads arent too bad, you can use a tap or die, can't remember which is which.

That seems to be the biggest problem wth cranks I hear about, stripping the pedal threads.

I've stripped 3 sets of cranks from pedals. Luckily they were all warranteed

Ya, I just got back from the bike shop, got a new crank. Yay.

Now I can go out and ride.

Tap is to re-thread a hole.

Die is to re-thread a post (like a pedal or something), or to put threads on something.
