Tech Tip #2 - How to Remove ISIS Spline Cranks
Given that my first video was well received, I decided to make another one. Episode 3 will arrive tomorrow. In the middle the audio skips for about a second. I said "Since these are Raceface cranks..." Purchase all the tools I use in this video at your local shop or www.parktool.com

Yeah that sounds good! I have already shot episode 3, but for episode 4 I will do wheel truing. I'm probably gonna make it a "true your wheels in five minutes" type of deal though, because I don't feel qualified to go into extensive detail about such a difficult process. I will post a truing video though!

Most X-Type cranks use a self-extractor system which, like you mentioned, pisses a lot of people off. On one side, there is a 10mm bolt which is removed from the crank like in this video, but this cap has an 8mm bolt on the back, which you insert into the crank and removes it. Basically, remove the cap, flip it around and screw it in again, and the arm should come off. If your crank does not have a double-bolt cap, then take off the normal cap and insert a dime into the BB. This dime is the same size as the spline, so it can act as the front of a crank puller. Re-thread the cap back on with the dime in place and the crank should come off. Hope I could help.
