  • You’re probably going to need a cannondale crank puller. Get one side off and if you can knock it through then happy days.
    Wait and see how that goes before worrying 👍🏻

  • Hi PhilDAS thanks.
    So I've seen one for £24 on a uk site. I've also seen some possibly dubious videos on youtube showing how to remove without one... I think for the sake of £24 its maybe better just to get one.

    So for talking sake, once I have the proper crank puller and a new axle, how do i get the broken axle off the other arm? Is it just a case of using the crank puller on that arm too?

    Then is there another special tool needed to install the new axle onto the arm? or just a case of putting the axle into the end of the arm and doing up the bolt?

    Sorry I feel like I'm maybe asking a lot of daft questions here - I've got zero experience of cannondale cranks or bb30. Long live threaded BSA...

    I haven't tried but yes I think so.

    Just grease and bolt it back together but be aware that the crank bolts need to be done to torque of 40nm which is quite significant and more than you can get with a small allen key
