Redline 401 Crank Arm - Cracked Pinch Bolt

(1/4) > >>

BossHogg:
Hi all,

I've got this set of single pinch Redline 401's. Bit of rust here and there but pretty good nick overall.........well apart from this crack in the non-drive arm. :(



Anyone know if this damage can be fixed up and made good enough to ride on again?  The crack looks to be in a pretty tricky spot alright.  Could be some issues with any repairs being put under tension in that spot right there, i dunno.

Any expert opinions appreciated.

Cheers - Jim  :daumenhoch:

Im sure that could be fixed if you know a good tig wilder, but it would take a bit of work to get it looking right  :-\

Or even a good tig welder  ;)

billstup:
I recon it could be repaired for show purposes, but I wouldn`t like to ride on them  :(

bmx xxx:
i recon super super glue would do, well worth repairing though, good luck

sawzall:
that should repair ok,the crack would need to be veed out then tig welded,then the thread would need to be re-tapped ;)
