Martin Posted October 21, 2005 Report Share Posted October 21, 2005 (edited) hey, just got a few questions about tensile cranks 1. my cranks keep on coming loose, is it my BB (its the one that you can buy with it from super cycles) 2. ive lost the back half of the screw on bit where the pedal goes. can i get a new one? if so where from? 3. can i fit a echo or onza screw on cog with a bash guard. if so what bashguard? 4. if i get a different BB will it take different size crank bolts(and will it fit the crank hole), because the ones that it came with take a fatter and shorter bolt? thanks.

Houseface Posted October 21, 2005 Report Share Posted October 21, 2005 hey martin, i think if you do get a new bb it will come with bolts to fit it, if i understand correctly, you can get an echo bash guard and echo/ onza screw on chainring to screw it on(in the middle) hope im talking about what you mean, steve.

emery Posted October 22, 2005 Report Share Posted October 22, 2005 Well the pedal loss thing soesn't matter it's happened to me just looks gay really. And when I got my shinamo bb the bolts didn't fit my cranks so I used my original bolts. If your bolts are coming loose this again happened to me. You might need either a new bb or new cranks :lol: I had to get new cranks but my bb was fine and dandy. Oh not sure about the pedal loss as I thought you ment the crank bolt. But hoped some of this helped. toby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe_Elding Posted October 23, 2005 Report Share Posted October 23, 2005 does anyone how strong the Try-All (isis) bottom brakets are? From what I've heard on here they're fairly weak. But I've had no personal encounter with them myself (Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea what that BB is mate but have you tigthen them up properly?? Maybe tried some locktigth, blue not red as you do want to get these off again. If i'm right then your pedal aint even fitted with that part misisng. Ie the replaceable pedal thread. Yes you can get them as spears. tartybikes sort you out. I belive an Onza, Echo, Zoo bash will fit on. A FFW one or screw on type. You'll get differnt ISIS axles, M16 is out now, M12 and M15. the bolt head can be different. Probs just bets to try and if not LBS it. rember to do em up tight. Full body weight is a good thing on them but dont round the heads off or you'll be aunt buggad and it's not my fault. Good luck Martin. Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Posted October 24, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2005 cheers pete, i will need a new axle then becase i cant put my full body weight on it becase it will strip the threads on the bolts because the bolt is so short and only just gets the start of the thread in.
