Hey Ric,

Pretty sure those are Demolition cranks designed by Nate Wessel.
Try googling this and see if anything else comes up, might even be able to get spares from the likes of Custom Riders / Alans?

Anyway, all this bolt is doing is helping stop the crank arm from sliding off the spindle so you may be able to make something up using a large diameter washer which will have a small enough central hole to suit the spindle bolt, but a big enough outside diameter to sit on the shoulder of the crank arm itself and "keep" the arm on?

Hope this makes sense, and answers the question  ;D I might have totally misread this - I should be working right now ;)

Yep deffo a Demolition Crank (just like this one I had) :daumenhoch:
Your bolts look different to mine. Maybe a different year or rethreaded?

oldschoolrb:
do you know what they'r called i cant find any info on them ?

HEYWOOD BMX:
 :) Are they an early Demolition Medial crank? Custom Riders will prob be able to help.. :daumenhoch:
