Worn grooves into Crank Brothers Quattro spindles?
Anyone else have this issue?
For the longest time I've thought I was having problems with my bottom bracket having a bit of play. It turns out the creaks I've been hearing are caused partially by the internal housing in my carbon frame but mostly by the pedal platform sliding up and down the pedal spindle.
I took it apart yesterday and found the ti spindle, which is anodized(?) gold, is worn through to bare ti on two sides. Anyone else have this issue? Do you think this could be the cause of the creaking noise that reverberates loudly on my frame?
Considering switching to Speedplay, and avoiding titanium.
