Title: I've lost one
Post by: curtispro on June 14, 2011, 08:15 AM
Went out riding last week on my Curtis and gave it a wipe over last night (like you do :LolLolLolLol:) and noticed that I have lost the retaining bolt and red washer from my twin pinch cranks on one side  ??? Should have used some thread locking stuff I know  :idiot2:

Anyone know where I can get a replacement from?

Thanks in advance

Jon

Kuwahero always seems to have a few sets kicking around, might be worth dropping him a pm

Fortunately the crank arm stayed on and didn't work loose, pi$$ed off though  :tickedoff:

they are different threads as the new cranks use a metric thread :daumenhoch:

Try giving 'Griff' a pm I think he may have some

i think you will find that the one's Marc has are imperial thread for the original 401's and you'll need metric but, if you go to your local bike shop you should be able to get normal 3 piece crank bolts that will fit (i have some on my assassin)  :daumenhoch:

Yep metric is required, I am having no luck at the moment finding Redline ones, will pop to the LBS later and see what they have got, I need the washer too  :-[

the one's from your LBS should have a flange on them so no washer is required  :daumenhoch:
