The SW-7 is nickel plated for years of service. Available at Amazon Check Price Now! Sets the starfangled nut to 15mm and keeps it straight. Long handle helps prevent pinched fingers. Thread the nut onto the TNS, insert into the fork stack, and tap it in with a hammer.
Bill Hall of Famer. Joined: Sep This is the one she was talking about in another post. That does look like a one piece but I can't see it close enough to ascertain the right kind. Good maintenance to your Bike, can make it like the wheels are, true and smooth! Website Find. Sorry for all the rust. Anyway, hopefully, this will narrow down the tools I need and the correct bottom bracket. RBurrelli Pro Member. With all that rust how can you even tell if the bottom bracket is the issue.
The chain would be an issue for sure! And not sure how the derailleur even functions in that condition. Hi Josephine; Many most? Take pictures so that you know how things go together.
After disassembly, you have three choices: 1 clean up everything, grease and assemble. I use boat trailer wheel bearing grease from Wal-mart - low cost, stays in place. GeorgeET Hall of Famer. Joined: Apr Good links Nigel. Looking at the condition of bike. IMO go with option 1 or 2. After that the price of components comes close to buying a new bike, and you will need a lot more work soon, if not now.
Also chain needs replacing, or at least heavy cleaning. To open pre soak pedals crank and the large end nut over night with Liquid wrench or at least wd You will need a large wrench, perhaps a adjustable one. Thanks, guys. I think the frame on this bike shows promise because it is about the only thing that isn't rusted.
I may just upgrade components as I get the cash. The bracket still has a reasonable amount of life left, IMO, so I won't be looking at replacement probably for a couple of months yet.
I may go with option 2 if it fails sooner than that and I assume only a wrench will be needed for removal and installation of the new bracket? Now if I went with 3 and I still might, what additional tools would I need for installation? Hi Josephine: 3a same wrench plus a 14 or is 15? If you have ever want to remove the cranks, you'll need a crank puller like a listed in my first post. Thanks again. For now and the short term, I'm going to go with the 2nd option, but once warmer weather arrives I'm going to probably go with 3b.
I'd seriously like to get away from rusting in the future, which is why I have a question about the 3b components- are they rustproof? But you get the idea. I use one of these for that very reason. Nothing much to it really. Or read on. We cover the whole process below. Firstly, remove the crank bolt with the 8mm wrench. Screw it out as far as it will go. Then install it into the crank. As with any threaded tool or component that you need to always be mindful not to cross the threads.
This thread is conventional right-hand thread so seat it correctly in the crank threads. It also does not hurt to apply some light oil, sewing machine oil, that sort of thing, to the threads.
Light lubrication ensures easier installation and removal, as well giving the most resistant-free experience in turning the foot bolt and pressing the crank away from the spindle.
A 15mm socket wrench is the best tool to use. A socket ratchet wrench is the most convenient of course. Or ring spanner. Basically you want to be using a tool with the longest handle possible. That way you will get the leverage required for the intial turns. A crescent wrench will be fine also, but more likely to slip given the amount of force required at the very beginning of this procedure. Nevertheless, a big crescent wrench with a long handle will give you more leverage than alternative, shorter handled, tools.
The crank will likely be fitted tightly. Breaking it free will require a lot of elbow grease for one-half to maybe one full turn. Once it breaks free, then it will come off easily and quickly. You will probably only have to move the crank a few milimeters.
Then it will come loose and slide right off. In this shot the crank is almost right at the end of the spindle. Make sure you are watching carefully. The crank can come free so quickly it may fall to the floor.
The drive side, being heavier, is more likely to get away from you in this manner. Once you have removed the crank simply remove the crank puller. The non-drive side is removed in the same fashion. Now, the procedure will be hugely more complicated if the crank has rusted onto, or fused in some way with the spindle. Not using grease in the initial installation makes it more likely to happen. Applying grease to either the spindle taper, the crank aperture surfaces or both is a controversial topic.
However, as with all components a key reason for applying grease is to make the job of removal easier—or simply just possible—later, often many, many years later. Check out the article to survey the various opinions on the subject. Installing the crank on either side is straightforward. Practically speaking, this means that the procedure is not the reverse of crank removal.
You can start with either side. I normally begin with the drive side. You install this first then finish it off by attaching and tightening the non-drive side arm. With a square taper crank, you simply need to slot the square aperture in each to the spindle. The important thing here is to get each square ie. Not so for square taper.
