Well the crank isn't much of anything really all that special. I would like to save it but if not, its not going to break my heart since i bet my coop has a replacement arm or crankset that will work in place of the one that has problems.

I'm going to bring my frame to a bike shop near me today and see what they say. I would take it to the coop but they aren't open til Thursday and I would like to have the arm off by then.
