Can anyone let me know how to put new threads into a crank arm for the pedal. Both drive and non drive side have been stripped. I've got a tool from wiggle that can do it to a certain extent, but I think the hole is too big and worn out for these. I read about helicoil somewhere but not familiar with using these and what size coils would I need? Also I'm assuming I'd need to buy two of these for each side as the threads are different?

Thanks for the advice.

Can anyone enlighten me here. These cranks have driven me mad! Lol

Was working on the newer cannondale bikes. So the caad 12 and synapses. Says bb30 under the frame so though I'd change the crank over from a cannondale si crank to a fss bb30. Seems simple enough. However when installing the fsa one and bearing in mind I've installed the bearing covers and the wavy washer, once the bolt is tightened on the non drive side the crank arms are pressing hard against the bearings and the crank hardly spins. Tried taking off the wavy washer and covers etc and same problem. Tried different fsa cranks and different dust covers. Same issue.

I Checked the length of the spindle and yes the cannondale si cranks are a bit longer, but just from eyeballing it they have several spacers and with the spacers on the length of the spindle on the si crank looks identical to a normal fsa bb30 one.

Is there anyway to get the normal fsa bb30 cranks to work on these cannondales? Older synapse from say 2013 had a normal bb30 crankset. This seems to be an issue since the 2017 /18 range of bikes came out.

Finally, I just got tired and put the si crank on again. Wondering if these cranks are propriety with these frames and no other crank will work or am I just missing something simple here?

Thanks for any advice.

Yep check the o ring is still there. Also be careful with those bolts. They are like cheese and Round off so easily and then you have another issue make sure you push down hard when opening closing.

;) no problem mate. I'll let you know ASAP as I may not end up buying this other stand I was keen on buying :( I'll send you a pm and close this link so I can contact you easily. At my luck, I'll never end up finding this thread again :) . Just cannot find things on this site. Phhh. Oh well. Thanks for the reply.

Sorry mate, but I'm asking a genuine question here as not sure how to find things on this site. Appreciated if you could let me know. I've tried the search and don't have any luck with that.

Fuel Already sold. Better luck next time. Lol.

Thanks I did that and see it, but i mean how did you find the post in the first place? I just couldn't find it.

How do you guys search the lfgss forum to check previous posts? Never seem to be able to search these things. Had a look everywhere and could not for the life of me see the post when it was purchased. Thanks guys.

I'll get back to you mate.

Yep looks like it was sold for about what siggy is saying. So will consider whether I'll sell here or not, as not fair to sell for much more. If I do sell then if it get about 85 back to cover fuel as well then sounds fair. Let's see.

Did you mate. I can't remember. Been so long. Yep bought it from siggy. Thought I paid about 150 for it. Maybe I'm wrong. Hmm.

Allows you to work on all sides of the bike without turning it.

Looks like above when bike is loaded onto it. Clamps on to the front wheel axle only.
