I have a kona unit 2-9er

I have one fault with the bike, the crank came off the spline and the retaining end cap has unscrewed itself. This has a torque setting and it looks like the thread has stripped so I need to get a replacement; not sure where I could source this?

It is the pedal crank on this...

[IMG] [/IMG]

the shaft or spline for the pedal slides on to the crank for the pedal (left I think) and is retained (stopping the crank working its way off the spline shaft) with an end cap (this has the torque setting and has the stripped thread). The is an allen bolt grub screw binding the crank to the spline and that is ok but will not hold it on without the end cap.
