Cranks

[dylan]

Hey, I was gonna get Truvativ Hussefelt cranks with bash and 22t ring for $105 from Chain reaction, but the bastards took it off their site and dont import it anymore. ive seen some quotes for it for like $260 here.. far too much. anyone got some to sell me? otherwise im gonna have to live without beer for months and get middleburns...

Those Truvativs are't that great anyways..... I think Garry may hve a set kicking round though.....

Actually I think Cameron sold his to someone else (not sure who). I have had some issues with my hussefelts when fitting them to a new BB. Another problem is if you get the howitzer (external bearing BB model) you need the truvativ BB also so it reduces campatibility later if you want to upgrade.

That said I don't know any other cheap/strong options....

Get some shitty cranks for cheap, like Deore, and get a Middleburn bash off Peacer....????

[dylan]

thanks, i think i'll either get shitty everything or middleburn everything. the shimano ones are 'splined' not isis.. this bike will be the death of me

I don't think a middleburn bash will fit a standard crank Adam :dunno:

[dylan]

yeah thats a good point, they have that wavy bit that they fit onto. also theyr 5 bolt, most of the shitty ones are 4

The truvativ trials bash fits on standard shimano cranks. I know as i have tried it. You need to file a very small area of the bash to allow the arms to clear but it works.

That said i have never seen the bash for sale anywhere on its own. I bought mine on ebay after searching for ever and it was from a guy who had bought a trials crankset.....

[stocktrials]

i may have middleburns for sale very soon. cheap.. looking at about $175
black bashring, 170mm. and i'll throw in a 22t ring.

[Gaz]

I might be interested in those Mitch. Splined or ST. Any chance of a BB too...:bigthumb:

[stocktrials]

i think dylan may have first dibs on them. but they are ISIS, scratched but still very strong. no BB sorry

[Macbeth]

Middleburn also make a bash that bolts onto a regular 110bcd spider Joel.... Derrrrrrr :slap:

[dylan]

yeah, sorry i should have posted earlier, i think they might be part of my new steed.. but ill give em to you gary if something else pops up or theres a problem.

[linz]

[dylan]
