On the other end of things, earlier this year I did a tune-up on a bike that had less than 100 miles on it, and it needed it's crankset replaced because the ham-fisted mechanic who built it over-tightened the crank bolts so much that the crank was already bottomed out on the spindle. This is why crank bolts should be installed with a torque wrench.
