Think i found a new way to get off crank arms...
I was trying to get my crank arms off today, and they didnt seem to
agree with coming off. So what i did is loosen both of the bolts hold on the crank arms, then went off and rode the bike in the driveway to get them loosened, I also put the pedals parallel with the ground and kinda of stood on them and stomped, trying to put the pressure in the opposite direction it usually is. I got the left one off in no time and the right came a little later. It seemed to work great for me, since i have no crank puller. Also I usually but Park tools, but i got a recent biek catolog andthe have spin doctor tools for really cheap. Are they good quality? For the price? crank puller for $8, 13 - 19mm cone wrenches 16.99 |

BRBR Yep, do that a few times and say goodbye to your crank arms.....
