i was ripping it down the road earlier today after just fitting my new DA bottom bracket. and my bloody drive side just fell off and then got rode over my a car. gay i know.
how could this of happened? i have never put on a crank arm so tight because i was trying to get the chain line spot on. could this of happened because after i had tightened the cranks with a bolt i then replaced with a hex key bolt. did i just not tighten this enough?
dont want it to happen again. i cant afford to keep letting my drive side be run over.
thanks
