I have a lovely 1930's set of bsa double fluted steel cranks on my EF Russ, but the left hand crank has formed a big-ol' crank (and I mean big) just above the pedal. Anyone any experience of welding cranks/using cranks that have been fixed in this way? The bike has been run fixed but could be set up with freewhee/gears Bad idea or worth a shot? .
I really don't want to loose these cranks, and bsa 5pins that are double fluted are pretty hard to come by.
Cheers,
Jeff
