Title: CW cranks end caps
Post by: Jt on March 20, 2009, 01:55 PM: right then..i bought some of these rare puppies and am having them rechromed...loverly 3pc with a 1pc thread for pedals ( i dont know either)

anwyay, they came without the end caps...i have checked and the sugino ones fit in.

question is, are there any replacement end caps that come without sugino on them out there?

these cranks will look crap without the end cap, so i would like to put something equally bling on them that doesnt say sugino on it...

if not, is there someone who can make some for me, if i supply a pair of half knackered sugino ones...

Nice 3pce Crank, looked everywhere for one when i had my Cw Phase one.

Post by: mark 2 on March 22, 2009, 02:38 AM: Jonny T, as above, if a Sugino fits it's likely to be a standard 22mm x 1mm thread, I reckon if you go to any posh mb or road bike shop you could be in luck. ;)

I think I might have confused them with the Anlun crank caps :-[
