King C Posted June 17, 2006 Report Share Posted June 17, 2006 (edited) I think some one mentioned something about some chemical metal once in NMC. Their thread was about bodging rounded square tapers and someone mentioned ISIS tapers and this magical metal stuff.EDIT found it hereOT: I recon chinese people are going to dominate the trials world.

ScotchDave Posted June 17, 2006 Report Share Posted June 17, 2006 Theres always the old coke can and loc tite trick, get a coke can and cut it to fit over the tapers, then degrease the bb taper the can and the crank taper, stick a bit of loc tite on the crank bolt and horse it up TIGHT. Or you could buy new cranks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
