What am I looking at? New wheel, messed cranks or broke?

fooby (Feb 21, 2011 at 6:53)

I already posted a pic of my amazing crank job, so the wheel.

Rattsl (Feb 21, 2011 at 6:54)

So clean it's unreal, what did they use?

www.pinkbike.com/photo/6079522 I think the commer messed the link up.

I cut it off with a hacksaw, then I used a dremel to take some edges away, then I gave it to one of my customers, and he took it and had one of these. www.cordless-drills.net/images/pictures/wilton-combo-bench-belt-and-disc-sander.jpg

So he sanded the edges off till it was major clean, then I sprayed them. When the paint wears out, I need to powdercoat them.

Sounds like allot of work, but I think I'll try the dremel and paint, mine are a bit messy.

Rattsl (Feb 21, 2011 at 7:40)

It's not as bad as you think lol.

Good stuff, I'm ordering one of those Blackspire rings too, put the BMX cranks on hold for a while as the wheel was more urgent. They do look thick enough not to snap like the ones I've tried so far

Rattsl (Feb 21, 2011 at 11:30)

Good stuff yo.
