The mechanics at the LBS assured me it was normal and had me look at others on new bikes in the shop and they were right all of them protruded out the side like mine! I'll get used to it, or add a cup to finish it off better. They make me want to shorten that spindle a bit to get the crank arms to snug up closer to the BB. The crank arm on the left side, or side without the sprocket, where the crank arm screws into the BB just seems unfinished to me, and appears to stick out too far. All you need is a large adjustable wrench and a screwdriver. ![]() One-piece cranks are the easiest type to service, and require no special tools. One-piece cranks fit only the unthreaded shells 51.3 mm (2.02') in diameter. This crank kit contains the axles, crank arms, bearing, bolts and washers to rebuild a 1pce crank. Bicycle bottom bracket (crank hanger) shells fall, in general, into two groups, threaded and threadless.

Those two new cups are threaded on their inside and you screw in a cartridge that holds the sealed bearings. The "kit" is not much more than two cups that are held together by three long skinny screws that go all the way through your bottom bracket and when tightened pull the two cups together, butting them up against the edges of your bottom bracket, kinda like the way the old bearing cups did. Truvativ makes a conversion kit that got high marks on the forums i researched on the topic and that's the one I wanted, but my LBS ordered a different one for me and I honestly can't tell the difference. ![]() I'm terrible at trying to explain things in few words because I don't know the correct bicycle parts lingo but I just did this on my old Monark this past weekend and I don't mind trying to explain the process, if you can tolerate a biography! Hopefully someone else with more knowledge can polish what I'm trying to say in better terms, kinda like a wiki post! ![]()
