So I'm having a problem with octalink LH crank. One fell off a few months ago, probably '04 model. I tightened it up but it happened again. Having had similar problems with square taper, I replaced the crank, admittedly with a second-hand one off the forums.
Worked fine for a month or so until that one came undone too. Oh dear I thought, tried again with some loctite but no good. Must be the BB. So I checked the splines on the BB and there was the minutest wear on one of the splines, couldn't see that anything else could have been causing it. Annoying as the bearings are perfect. One brand new bb later and my crank came loose on the way to work.
Any ideas? do I need to buy a new crank?
Thanks
