Broken Schlumpf Crank
One year old and here's the pic. 30517 I was climbing a moderate hill in 2nd gear, then I felt a wobble for a 1 second, then upd. Landed on my feet so I'm okay. Since I had the Schlumpf, I put a few drops of oil in the hub and that's it. I never touched the cranks bolts. But a funny thing; I just got a torque wrench for christmas. Where should I get new cranks? +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Filename: PC300203.jpg | |Download: http://www.unicyclist.com/attachment/30517 | +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ -- critter MUni!

Broken Schlumpf Crank
You can either get the same schlumpf cranks at http://www.schlumpf.ch Or You can try out some ProWheel cranks. You probably want to get a crank with some Q factor b/c if you are using a crank with no q, you increase the chance of an accidental shift. -- siafirede 'DCuni' (http://www.dcuni.com/blog) - my blog about Unicycling in Washington DC, Virginia, Maryland *James* = my name ------------------------------------------------------------------------ siafirede's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/6057 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/67617 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

Broken Schlumpf Crank
I like the prowheels. They're pretty much the best square taper cranks I've ridden for pretty much anything. No GUni experience yet, though They have reasonable standing room for flatland, lots of q-factor, and are light. I have every size of prowheel from 102mm to 165mm. -- nimblelight 'Front page unicycle article' (http://www.unicyclist.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=72686).

Broken Schlumpf Crank
I didn't think they made a 165mm crank. I thought the only sizes they made were 102, 127, 150, & 170mm. I wouldn't have thought 5 mm would make much difference. I switched my 150 cranks to 170's on my Muni and love the control they offer (they also have more Q-factor) but it is hard to pedal smoothly. I rode a KH 24 w/ 165's and it was just as smooth as my 150 mm cranks. -- skilewis74 Ride everywhere and never just ride anywhere.

I took a second look at my crank collection and I have the 102mm prowheel, the 127mm, and the 152, but the 165mm cranks turned out to be "MEL" or something. I haven't ever used cranks that long so it doesn't matter anyway though The 152mms are the longest I have ever wanted. -- nimblelight 'Front page unicycle article' (http://www.unicyclist.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=72686).

If you are talking about the dual drilled KH moment 125/150 cranks...they will not fit on your schlumpf hub. You have the square taper road schlumpf hub, not the KH/Schlumpf muni ISIS hub (by the look of the pic in your thread). -- siafirede 'DCuni' (http://www.dcuni.com/blog) - my blog about Unicycling in Washington DC, Virginia, Maryland *James* = my name ------------------------------------------------------------------------ siafirede's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/6057 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/67617 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |

I also have 114mm qu-ax cranks, 89mm united cranks, 140mm MEL cranks, and some weird no-branders in my square taper set. I've never really considered dual-hole cranks, if I travel somewhere on the shorter ones the shorter ones are fine for whatever terrain I encounter. I've ridden through a bog abound with tree roots and a full bmx track on 89mm cranks(yes, at times it felt a bit like coasting over bumps). I wouldn't recommend it, but it was a good experience. I only have one pair of ISIS cranks, so I have no variety for anything over a 2ft drop, which is fine for now. -- nimblelight It doesn't really matter, because I am an afoodist who unicycles for food.

Broken Schlumpf Crank
Thanks for the help siafirede. Emailed schumpf to see if I can recall the hub. And/or to order new cranks but no response yet. here's a vid of me ... thinking that I'm doing it right. stripped shifter button Note: I didn't start with the drill. I did have the drill on the lowest torque setting. -- critter MUni!
