Requests:
Gary: Do you plan on doing one for cottered cranks as found on vintage English 3 speeds?
Carlo: Cottered cranks removal (old style bike) It seems a quite difficult operation especially if you would like to preserve the old cotter.
Hjalmar: Where is the chapter on [old] cottered crank arms? Park Tool no longer sells their CR-2, and I’m still loathe to use a hammer. Also, where can on get replacement cotter pins for crank arms?
Status:
We need an older bike with cottered cranks, and a cotter pin press before I can produce this tutorial. Any bike shop or company who is willing to donate a bike and/or tools for this tutorial will receive brand exposure in exchange. Contact me if you are interested.
