Will this crank come off this chain ring?
 

I would like to hang this chain ring on the wall, how can I get the crank off and not damage anything?

I don't think so. The crank is swage fit to the ring, so you'll have to cut of the swaged part...and it won't go back together.

Thanks Luker, I will hang it on the wall as is then :)

Great plan to keep it intact. There are only a limited supply of those old Schwinn cranks made with the A S & C O cut out.

It would make a really cool doorknob.

:lol:

hahaha then only cyclists would know how to open the door!

Hang em high!
 

Here are some quick pictures of the hanging.

A pic of the backside would help.

Maybe you could heat the ring and hit the crank hole with a CO2 fire extinguisher?
Else drill out the back side.

Here you go Bill, (2 pictures) but I don't wish to damage it.

Thanks!

I would soak it overnight in oxalic, clean it up, polish it with NevrDull. It will look awesome.

Why Drew a perfectly usable crankarm?
