Title: Crank Cone Spacer - sizes?
Post by: punkdSICO on July 18, 2011, 09:19 PM

Hey all

Will a set of these fit a Redline twin pinch crank, fitted to a old school freestyler (DP Firebird Freestyler):

If so, which version, US, Mid or Spanish..?  I still am confused about what size cranks old school freestylers have..

ta for any replies,

Paul

Good luck getting them from Winstanley  :-\

As for BB sizes, US BB is the most common size for all old skool BMX.

Mid is the size of a lot of New Skool BMX, they are pretty much the old skool sealed bearings without the alloy bearing cups.

& Spanish, I think it just slightly smaller than mid & again just the bearings pressed into the frame.

Hope this helps  :daumenhoch:
