how to install the fly crank
meaby this ment to be in the how to forum?

here are some instructions of the best way to assemble the cranks

put grease on the side of the spindle without bolt and on the arm

slide the arm and then hit the end of spindle with a wood piece to introduce it completely

THIS IMPORTANT. make sure that the arm is completely introduced to continue. The arm must be flushed with the spindle end

introduce the spindle on the bb

grease the other side of spindle and arm

introduce the arm with some hits with a piece of wood or a rubber hammer

tight the bolt and that´s it!

Even though i think they are weird looking...I really like how they go together with that flush endor w/e. If I get new cranks it'll be these or Wombolts. Hopefully these won't be $200

they are £149.99 in the uk. which is the same price as the wombalts. so im guessing the same will apply in the US

I don't remember what site it was...but they had pre-ordering now. So, I'd guess everyone will have them before Xmas.

Got a good laugh out of greaseing the splines...isn't that common sence?

I never did with my Profiles...I felt it was unecessary.
