Hi All,

Is it possible to fit a bottom bracket boot on a Flight Crank(Double Pinch new one) or are these only for 1 piece cranks. ???

If they don't, anyone wanna Blue ODI BB Cover!!!!! :LolLolLolLol:

Some do some are loose ball BBs on Flites....

It should squeeze over the spindle end if you drop it in hot water for a while... if you do it when its cold you might split it  ;)

Hi All,

I bought it because it was Blue, ODI and it had a STICKER TOO!! :D  I thought about fitting it after I bought it! :LolLolLolLol:

I am changing over everything that was black on my Mongoose Replica to blue and it is another "gadget" to fit!!! :D

LXIX you are right mate the cranks are sealed but if I don't fit it  they seem to be rare and it will be useful as a Part-Ex in a trade towards the last bits I need (Blue vinyl pads and a rear blue MX 900/1000).  Or sell it to Dordy for cash.  I also have a mint Jam Butty seat clamp that is useless as the goose has a fixed seat clamp-tempted to rectify that grrrr :knuppel2: :knuppel2: :knuppel2:

I will post a few pics in tech&resto or under the BMX Bandits "Has anyone built a replica of one of these" post in Random! :)

Cheers for the advice so far,

Cheers

Rich
