I tried to put my XT cranks on my 2000 Specialised Rockhopper FSR,
but when I torqued it up to 40lb/ft, the inner chainring was rubbing on the bottom bracket shell so the cranks wouldnt move
So I replaced them with the original crank,but that wouldn't turn either cos the ring was hitting the front mech somewhere
So why was it all working fine before I touched it?
The crank bolts were a little loose but everything worked fine

the bike is completely original, BB, cranks, mech, even grips and tyres

OK, sorted
I retorqued the cranks to about 25ft/lbs and they work again
