  1. Something I,ve done before is:

    Boil a kettle full of water, then pour the water over the taper end of the damaged crank arm.

    The alloy will expand slightly and alowl you to knock the crank are off with a block of wood / hammer.

    Good luck :)

    Didn't Work :(

    That's an automotive tool, you should be able to find it in any store which deals with such tools. They're used for removing hubs and bearings.

    What almost always works is just undo the crank bolt and ride... the crank will fall off.

    I've tried riding and didn't worked I've tried that tool and didn't even come loose xD

    yes that should work but where can I get that! haha I live in Argentina. All my friends are telling me to ride the bike until the crank gets loose... what do you guys think about this?

  4. tried both and the TNNs were better, the heatsinks didn't have the hold I would get with the TNNs

    I have a 4 bolt booster set up would it change in the sound of the pads? bite or hold? (of course it will change the hold hehe) cause right now my brake isn't sounding or biting.. Also I have an other question for you Ali hehe... do you think that a frame will crack if I don't use a booster ( I have zoo piranha 09 frame :D) Thanks.

    Also Thanks to all for answering (Y)

  5. Hi I am going to buy some new pads I was going to buy LGM's cause I've heard that they are really good pads but also the Heatsink one so now I don't know which ones to buy...HELP ME DECIDE :D

  6. Just an odd question, does the frame cracks if you don't use a booster? I have Zoo piranha 09 that has a little thing that is supposed to be an integrated booster.Right now I have zoo 4 bolt booster but I can get any bite from the brake so... should I take off the booster or will the frame crack?.

    An other idea is that I can make the booster a 2 bolt by chopping it with the grinder?

    What do you guys recommend?
