Default Read if you have Rollo Disks

The shelf that the bolt face sits on is not actually that thin at about
4.5 mm - enough that it should be more than strong enough for the
appropriate axle bolt torque. The disk contains an insert section that
slides into the crank to support lateral force when standing on it;
again lots of metal for flat riding.

If you keep the Rollo disk on the cranks and hit it hard during a big
grind, you could break it. It's in a pretty vulnerable place. But
of course, the point of the disk is to take cranks that are good street
and trials cranks and turn them into good flatland cranks. If you are
going to try something that might really smash it, just take it off.




thanks kris! that answered my questions. i'll order some as soon as udc
has the appropriate bolts!
