Token bump... Thanks for this. Just done mine now and it seems to be going well so far, done both my brakes and about to assemble and see the results. Cheers buddy.

£22 is a little too much for what they are don't you think! And I would invest in some new cranks but it's the fact that everything is sorted and ready to go apart from this insert that i need. I would end up upgrading but for now I'm just after keeping these unless I can't find the insert.

I can't for the life of me find inserts that screw into cranks like the onza muscleman to allow standard pedals to screw into. Does anyone happen to have any spare of know of a site where I can get one from? It's such a ball ache and it's stopping me from riding Thanks.

I picked up a t-pro 2007 for £90 on gumtree a few weeks back. Just hold back and you'll find the perfect one!

Thanks for this. But I think I might just get some new cranks as today I've been told by the bike shop guy that it's not going to come out. May aswell!

:giggle:

I got mine from JJB sports. They were really cheap at £5 and look pretty good.

Alot of hate in here lol. Looks good mate. Something that IMO, looks great

No sir. I went to my local bike shop and asked if they sold the inserts, which they didn't. So the guy offered me to leave the crank and pedal with him and he'll try his best to get it out of the insert and told me to give him a call on Thursday (my 18th birthday. woopa!). So I'll ring him tomorrow

Pendulum's new album. Very sick so far. Right chillerrr

I'm not sure my Mum would appreciate me putting it in one of her cooking pans haha. I'll have a scoot around when they go out tonight and find something that will work.

Thanks for that buddy :') I'll give it a shot later tonight and get back to you. Now to find something to put it in when heating!

Correct Sir!

Ahh. My bad.

Say what?

LOL!

Absolutely spot on I'll look into helicoiling and see if school have the right equipment for the job Cheers matey

The pedal I removed was a wellgo platform so surely not? I'm changing them as I don't really like them and it was an odd pair. Why would I need to heat the crank up? Surely I need to remove the insert from the existing pedal so the crank isn't really involved with all this? I'm so confused haha.

maybe this problem is hinting for me to upgrade anyway

I thought the exact same. I'll get the blowy out and give it some heat Cheers

Taken a pic of my drawing. Hope this helps explain more?

Yeah, that sounds about right, only, nothing has come off (apart from pedal itself as I removed that for ease to work with) I'm not sure if I'm explaining properly what I mean. I'll draw what I mean and take a pic. Cheers guys

I am in the middle of replacing my pedals on my t-pro. However I've come across a little problem Today I brought my crank and pedal to school as the pedal wouldn't loosen from the crank so it had to be removed as I couldn't for the life of me do it at home without a secured vice. We managed to remove it however the only way it would come off would be that the pedal which screws inside another screw like thread which in turn screws into the thread in the pedal. Now as this seperate piece of metal was pretty much welded shut to the pedal it couldn't budge and as mentioned, would only come with the pedal. So now the thread in the crank is wayyy too big for my new (ish) pedal to go into due to this stray piece of metal being removed with the pedal. Pics kinda explain what I mean. Now what do I do? Look for this thread adapter piece which I can't find anywhere as I have no idea what it's called!? Cheers Apologise for the crap pics..blackberry cam is poo!

I have a massive tin of liquid bitumin from when we re-furbished our garage roof, we also have this other bitumin like liquidy stuff aswell as some slightly sludgy like substance like bitumin. It looks like tar and I've heard it being mentioned alot on here. However... How on earth do I get it to harden like normal tar? I have tried freezing it and it goes a little harder but I can still push my finger in it easily (giggity) Any ideas welcomed? THANKS. Dan

Don't pay it
