Ali C Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 does it actually need replacing? I have dented bashrings before and seen plenty more, they still do the job of protecting the ring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackC123 Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 yeh i could is there a special tool i would need to do thatYeah you willl have to remove the freewheel, in my honest opinion I think you should take it to your LBS (local bike shop) seeing as they are a slut to get off.

Connor Powell Posted April 16, 2009 Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 (edited) Wouldnt worry to much if its cracked, If you can get your freewheel off then take it off and spin your bash round so the crack is hidden under the crank arm, then it wont get touched there, or buy a new one, Most online stores sell them, Deltabikes.com, Tartybikes.co.uk, Selectbikes.com, Themontyshop.com Etc.
