Reply To: Fitting of nickel silver outside cranks to steel axles and how to quater the wheels

My concern with the plastic ones is that I, too have had them split in the past. Pinning – I think I could do that but would it stop them splitting? Therefore, like Dr. Gee I would rather use metal ones. I’m considering buying some of those new Markits ones, just the cranks and securing them to the axle as described above. Whether I can work to good enough tolerances to create a proper interference fit is another thing, but hopefully the Loctite would come to the rescue there.
