O.k how to remove stuck cotters. The spider gets in the way of mounting my press. Bashing is just bending the cotter. Any bright ideas. I hate cotters. I might get a strong light 47d for this bike.
Have you tried support between the underneath of the crank and the ground with a bit of sturdy pipe, undo the nut a couple of turns, place a sturdy drift on the top of the nut and give it a hard blow with a big hammer? You really have to hit it, don’t fuck about!
