tioga triangular one piece crank
Gnarlyscoots:
Why didn't you drill the pedal spindle from the back of the arm, then tap the remaining metal down off the threads and remove that way :-\
Can't believe you cut the arm off bro. Those cranks are hard to come by as no-one sells them.

Long story but my bench & vice had broken as had my drill . The only option with the tools i had to hand was to cut it off as i was working against the clock & needed to get the thing packed off to get chromed & i still had to get the seat post out with caustic (something else id never done & didn't know how long it would take)
Couldn't cut through the pedal spindle as i was on my own & there was no way to secure the frame or the crank arms whilst taking to it with this !
Ah well it was only a crank.
Besides they aint that rare, heres another !

The Pedal ate my drill bits, 2 of them & then the Drill burnt out , hence the reason i cut off the arm ... it was the ony choice i had & after losing a drill to the fooking thing cutting it in to bits felt gooooooooood :LolLolLolLol:
