• TA Cyclotourist single 1/8'' Chainring 43T to 48T in good condition.

    If anyone has a TA Cyclotourist or VAR Cyclotourist crank puller, i'd like to hear from you.

  • Tentative bump!

  • Have you tried Spa Cycles in Harrogate.
    They still had some NOS 1/8" TA in stock when I last spoke to them.

    I have a TA crank remover, currently on loan to another forum member.
    BigBen also has one, but I think he's in the USA for a while.

  • Talk to edmundro, he might be able to help you too.

  • Spa have rings but too large but they do sell Var crank removers but I have had run ins with John at Spa, so try to avoid them if I can.

    I am going to the Ripley CJ next Saturday, so might strike lucky.

    The Park Tools link did not work but the TA cranks are 23mm not 22mm.

  • I have a puller you can borrow in N10.
    I keep meaning to pop to a machine shop and see how much it'd be to get a few made as they seem pretty thin on the ground.

    1/8" rings are often on ebay us at silly prices. I've always managed to find em at jumbles with no trouble.

  • There is a chap from Windsor who has had some TA Crank Pullers made. He is usually at Ripley. He also sells on ebay. I'll see if I can find him and get back to you.

  • Here he is:

    Thanks for the link and he does have one.....£30....but even Spa Cycles sell something similar but cheaper [£19 inc postage]....i will use Spa in the last resort only....perhaps i will strike lucky at Ripley?.....I will send the chap a message...nothing to lose.

    Hmm, thought that was the tool I've got and have used before on these cranks. I'll check when I'm home on Tuesday. Welcome to borrow (n19) if not sorted by then...

  • Dave & edmundro...thanks for your kind offer of a loan of your TA pullers.....but I want one for keeps....just in case!

    I'm fairly sure I have either a 46T or 48T chainring in the basement of my house. I can have a look for you at the weekend.

  • BigBen also has one, but I think he's in the USA for a while.

    I'm just back and I think I have a puller, I might even have a chain ring. How many arms?

    If I don't post a reply by wednesday PM me a reminder...

  • I'm just putting together a track set and a triple set... and realised I don't have a 314 axle for the track one ...

    Shitsticks, does this mean I have to finally get my arse to Ripley? I wanna ride the track more ...
