Loads of parts for sale.

New front wheel wanted, must be cheap as.

27 1/4 or 700.

Hit me. Not literally..

Indeed. Just hacksaw a cut through the crank arm where shown in the below pic, then whack a blunt chisel in the cut until the arm splits open.

How would this help? Not meaning to sound aggressive, which reading it is how it sounds.... Meant as a genuine, "I don't understand"

I hate throwing away useable or repairable stuff as much as the next man - no, I would say I probably hate it more - but surely that's more trouble than it's worth and only worth bothering with if the cranks were very high quality, which it doesn't look as though they are.

But if I could get it done cheap, then it would be worth it...

question fail?

Wow. Just read through the old posts, and that was amazingly helpful. Will no doubt save a lot of hassle if I can get that done. Off to cycle surgery tomorrow then...

i have a double chainring crank that i am never going to do anything with. you can have it. its not pretty but it will get you mobil and for sure do until something else comes along at the right price. the length you would need is likely to be 170mm.
just let me know and i will drop it around this evening,,,,, along with your bars.

Thanks that is awesome. PM'ed

Yea - the one where the pedal attaches. So the pedal is loose when it is screwed in.

picture.. Is this the picture you had in mind?

No idea. Picture shall be taken now...

Problem:

Upon removing the old pedal from my crank, unfortunately the thread came with it. Not sure why/how but it did. Anyways, it was the crank attached to the chainring.

So I assume I need to buy a new crank, and a new chainring? Are the two attached? I have no idea but assume so.

Secondly, if I am buying a new crank/chainring combo, what size do I need? I know the best thing to do is go to a bike shop, but I'm short of beans and need to do it on the cheap. So was going to get summat of ebay/here if anyone has an old cheap one and then ask to borrow tools/knowledge to remove the old one and fit the new one.

Tips for the best way to proceed are much appreciated...

biodegredable works for me. Ta
