AdamR28 Posted October 30, 2006 Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 Its a standard M15 crank bolt thread though, which I would have said was pretty logical! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashley Smith Posted October 30, 2006 Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 Its a standard M15 crank bolt thread though, which I would have said was pretty logical!the point im meaning is though, i like a thread to be a standard off the shelve at ay your local iron mongers i.e. a M14, these silly crank bolts with the really fine pitch are there for a reason, i know! the fine thread keeps tighter, but they are harder to get hold of than a standard bolt M14 (readily available)noting that most stockists dont 'hold' stoc of the metric fine and metric special thread range of sizes!and from first hand expericence you have to buy a batch of around a 100 in a box if you order that particualt thread size inthe other point i was sgetting at is also, some botttom bracket manufacturers dont use m15 crank bolt thread, i have known m14 and m12, if it was a set size, like it was on the aquare taper (m8 fine) it might make things a little easier goingsorry for the rantash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way, all the different threads are a little off-putting for some, would be nice to stick to a standard like square, but I don't reckon it'll happen.

Ashley Smith Posted October 30, 2006 Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 yer would be good for it too happen, i share your views that i can't see it happening either, in a way, its a money making scheme so you have to buy the specific bolts!oh wellregards ash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
