Fishy Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 Your best bet is to give trials-uk a ring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeyseemonkeydo Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 Pedals can't cross thread after they're installed... Either you cross threaded them when you put them on to start with (which you'd have noticed) or the pedals loosened off a bit while you were riding and you kept on riding on them, destroying the crank threads... Either way I'd say the pedals really aren't to blame! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave85 Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 As an outside possibilty, poor threads on the pedal would cause the crank threads to strip like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsy trials matt Posted March 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 the pedals were like 35 or around that, could it be weak theards in the crank or somthing? is that why neons are so light? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Smith Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 or you could of put the r pedal on the l crank arm and l pedal on the r crank arm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

basher Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 Its not the pedals that have stripped the cranks its you. If they work themselves loose and you dont notice then they will strip the threads. You should always check your pedals every ride or few rides. Ive run echo forged for good 6month now. People strip them and then slag them off because they dont check there pedals and notice when there loose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
