My Tricross has a Truvativ Elita chainset, yesterday I removed the cranks (using only the 8mm bolt inside) to grease the axles. It seemed to self-extract fine and pop itself off, yesterday I was praising the genius design.
Unfortunately today out on a ride the outer 16mm bolt part seems to have fallen off somewhere, over about 15miles of country road, so it's pretty much a gonna. I take it the outer part is there JUST for the self extraction? Will it be safe without it for a bit?
Cheers
