JonPace Posted March 14, 2005 Report Share Posted March 14, 2005 Hi, I spoke to clive leeson the other day regarding my frame he's doin for me and I am gettin the ISIS BB in it as I have tensile cranks. He said he didn't know whether they would be ok with the frame due to rubbing, as he'd never tried em or heard of anyone doing so. Basically has anyone used tensile cranks with a leeson clear 660 frame? Cheers Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonPace Posted March 14, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2005 in what way are they different to other cranks? i.e. middleburns? ta ← well basically when I had my pure my middleburns were fine with the BB I had but then I got tensiles and they rubbed on the frame. They must not bend out as far or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Bleech Posted March 14, 2005 Report Share Posted March 14, 2005 Hey Jon, Do you still have your middleburns? Couldn't you put them back on and measure the distance between the frame and crank arm on each side! Then put the tensiles back on and measure the same distance and then Clive could work out how much longer if any the bb axle needs to be? Just an idea...

HarshRider Posted March 14, 2005 Report Share Posted March 14, 2005 i dont think it will fit .... my tensiles on my old monty urban rubbed then i got burns and they cleared by miles! erm it could be possible... might be worth sending them of to clive and testing them to see if they fit... (Y) find out the diffrence between burns and tensiles and i could measure on my leeson with my burns... to see if they would fit ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
