Title: 1 Piece to 3 Piece - Pedels
Post by: iNyk on March 26, 2006, 05:19 PM

Hi - daft question, but it has been over twenty years since i built this stuff... :uglystupid2:

Currently have a sugino one piece crank which I am replacing with a set of flights which are currently on their way from the US - I know the flights are 9/16 - and seem to recall that a one piece is typically is 1/2...

If so - Is it possible just to replace the spindles in the pedels....?  Or will i need to source a new set...?  They are suntour XCII's...?

Of course I could just wait and see if they fit - but that would spoil the fun...

ive just changed my spindlesover on me victor pedals fro 1/2 to 9/16th
pretty easy to do too just make sure you get the same size spindles
for the pedals if that makes sense ie 9/16th xc11s ones
