  • Can anyone tell me what's going on here - new cranks and the threaded insert is slightly loose - noticed it as could feel an occassional tiny wobble through the pedal.

    Need to buy new crankset / crank arm (which will be a total stinker - can't send these back) or can this be fixed with a helicoil??

  • If the the threaded insert is slipping, maybe some loctite will sort it. You would need to remove the insert to do it though.

  • Looks like bought a campagnolo crankset, which are made in Italy by total idiots

    Being serious, you could put your pedal in the freezer, then screw it in and try to pull the insert out

  • I think this washer is meant to avoid creaking and for better force distribution. I have veloce crankset lying around with this washer missing, so be careful and don't lose it.
