1p crank
Here is a good image of the/a
one piece crank [1]. I have a couple of such from Japan and Taiwan and they seem to be 100% interchangeable down to the last washer. What I can see they are also identical to the one depicted, only sometimes there is a big washer/spacer between the chainring/sprocket and the stationary cone, and they have a large dustshield between the adjusting cone and the lockwasher. The locknut is sometimes 31mm which is a rare combination spanner size. More often they are 32mm tho.

The others are 24tpi. -- Andrew Muzi www.yellowjersey.org/ Open every day since 1 April, 1971 |

And yes, I counted the Taiwanese crank has 6 threads for 4/16" or 24tpi as you say. -- underground experts united http://user.it.uu.se/~embe8573 |

You need a set of thread gauges: http://toolguyd.com/blog/wp-content/...itch-Gauge.jpg -- Andrew Muzi www.yellowjersey.org/ Open every day since 1 April, 1971 |

The Whitworth 55 24G blade looks like a very good fit to the crank thread but having it perpendicular and holding the crank and thread gauge to a light bulb I do see some light shining thru so perhaps that's it? BTW why are the Japanese and Chinese/Taiwanese using a US system? Not that there is anything wrong with that! Only the English system is everywhere I can understand because of them pioneering manufacture/industrialism... -- underground experts united http://user.it.uu.se/~embe8573 |

I just now did the same thing with an M8 bolt and the metric 1.25 pitch blade from the same thread gauge and there were light there as well, just a little but still, so perhaps one shouldn't use that method when in doubt... -- underground experts united http://user.it.uu.se/~embe8573 |
