1pc to 3pc crank
Hi,
I bought a new BMX 2 or 3 months ago, and i have been rebuilding it, it has a one piece crank, and i was wondering how to tell if a Redline 3piece crank will fit into the BB.
Redline Crank
Thanks in advance,
Ryan

Bikes: Catrike 559 I own some others but they don't get ridden very much.

It'll fit.
If you've never installed a 3-piece BMX crank before, doing the first one can be a bit of a trip.

I put the bearings and the spindle in the freezer for a couple of hours first. That makes it a lot easier to press them into place.
The hardest part is measureing and cutting the little sleeve that fits over the spindle and between the bearings.
