Either way, its stripped out and I have to now replace it before I can ride again.
The one that's on it now is a Sakae Edge and the other pieces have "santour Edge " on them.
I really have no clue what to buy. Do I replace the whole front gear crank, do I have to replace both? Can I just buy one from amazon for like 30 bucks or something @.@ everything on the trek website has me a bit scared.
I cant post pics cause I dont have enough posts yet @.@
If you are in Kansas city, there should be a bike co-op somewhere. They should have a good used part for cheap and be able to help you understand and put it on, it's what they do. google is your friend for this.
