Bit of a topic dredge but…
Am struggling to remove dub cranks from a frame, have tried handlebar over Allen key, impact driver, and setting torque wrench to 100 but cannot get the bolt to shift. Any suggestion? Am guessing choosing the hottest day of the year wasn’t a great idea… but my garage is relatively cool.
@brommers can I borrow your difficult crank tool- could you make me one?

Glad you got it sorted. I no longer have my Difficult Crank Tool - I left it with Cycliste when I retrieved my stuff from Switzerland recently. I only use it to remove crank lockrings, and in the UK I can use a bench vice instead, so I thought it would be of more use to her than me.

Any tips for getting a SRAM Red crankset off? Outer bolt on the NDS came off easily, but the 8mm bolt underneath is refusing to shift at all. Attempting to turn counterclockwise, can stand on the crank arm & stand on the Allen key without any movement. Have just sprayed some penetrating spray in there but any other tips gratefully received
