hi there as the title says my left crank arm is a bit loose and iam wondering if this is something i should worry about or not....i am going to tighten it soon but iam just hoping its not serious....what do you guys think? cheers

Hey people you might remember that i was after a base ta26 like last week erm well ive got one now and was wondering cos there seems to be quite a few of you with these lovely bikes what modifications and upgrades are best for the bike and what you have done to yours. specs: base ta26 frame hope xc hubs truvativ husselfelt crank try all handlebars try all front rim ex721 rear rim rear maggie front v brake atm e.t.c. cheers

cheers mate i think i get you...well you will be the first to know if iam out on my bike later and my forks fall off

hmm ok...so as you can tell i dont know much about how to do stuff to bikes so how do i put this spacer in?

hmm dont think ive got one at the moment but if i dont put to much pressure on the front end it should be ok for a week or so shoulndt it...... ......it has stopped most of the shaking.....

does it matter how much i tighten it...as it looks like the bolt just keeps going....doesnt get tight tight but the shaking has stopped...so does it never stop tightening?...if you get what i mean??

Hey guys i was wondering if you know the shake between the frame and forks when you press the front brake and push forwards and feel a bit of play in the forks is something to worry about or not...or how i can get rid of it? cheers will
