quick_spider Posted October 24, 2005 Report Share Posted October 24, 2005 I've just put my XTR cranks on and i'm running a dinner plate middleburn 2 piece bash. They're much stiffer than middleburns (Y) Has anyone used a Leeson bash on XTR cranks. Does it use the cranks original spider or does it go on the XTR spline? Any pics? Does anyone know where I can get a spare XTR 5 bolt compact drive spider? Ta Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trials_pimp Posted October 24, 2005 Report Share Posted October 24, 2005 If you have the Old Skool '99 XTR cranks, they are the best. The Leeson Rockring does away with the spider, and replaces it altogether, like the new middleburns. Boy, I would love a set of those cranks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks I'm not sure what year mine are, but they're the M952 splined ones. There are always sets knocking about on ebay - I think I paid around £70. The difficulty is getting a decent BB - the M950 BB's are rebuildable, but also quite rare. Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonny Jones Posted October 24, 2005 Report Share Posted October 24, 2005 I have some of those old XTR's on my Leeson - they came with the frame, Matt Tongue had the frame originally and he specced it with those cranks and leeson bash. The cranks are nackered but the bash is still solid after god knows how many years of use! You cant go wrong with Leeson and/or XTR cranks! I would go out and take a photo of them but its pissing it down! (Y) J. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
