Alright, here's the deal.

Truvativ ISIS drive cranks.

I have the pull. I lost the pin. I lost 40 cents in dimes to one attempt at jury-rigging.

So, if anyone here has any quick fixes to this, that would be great. I'm not too worried about the safety of the BB, or crankpull for that matter, I just need to get these off! If it involves shoving a stick through and hammering on the crankpull from the otherside until it comes off, then I'll do it.

Thanks,
Sherwood

Whenver I have problems with cranks being stuck, I just use a motorcycle tyre-iron. Wedge it between the crank and BB-cup and pry... POP! Never had a crank that defied this method yet...

Plantmiester

Well, lucky for me I got one from a friend.

But none-the-less, it is a point of discussion. Maybe it's trailside fix, or you don't have the tool.

I think if I had said tire-Iron, I might be tempted to use it, but as It stands I have none.

One thing I did try was sticking an old skewer through the BB and hammering it into the crankpull. This did nothing as I was unwilling to damage the pull at the time, but wold it work?

Lost 4 dimes? If they are too small, try a nickel. It's also thicker and stronger.

Plantmiester

No, nickles are too big. Dimes are the perfect size, but aren't strong enough.

By losing 4 dimes, I mean they are permanently out of shape.
