Ok , so I'm a gorrrilla armed with a hex key .
New bb fitted by lbs as it's pf , so I only had to refit the RF Turbine cranks . A decent amount of lube to help things along then tighten it, just 1/4 turn too much and I strip the axle thread.
So now I can't undo it as the bolt doesn't unwind so out with the power tools and holesaw out the bolt. Hit the remaining parts with a brick to remove and have a little cry when pricing a similar replacement.
Merlin to the rescue , perhaps.
Shimano M1700 slx 1X cranks in 175 for 142 and 148 with a 30t ring peice. My BB is PF92 24mm and I run a 10speed cassette. The Shimano cranks are 12sp.
Chain line is for 52mm and the Shimano axle is 136 / 142.
At £53 delivered it's the right money , but will it work with an older 1 x 10 non boost bike? I might need a new 10sp wide narrow if it keeps dropping chains but they are not eye watering expensive
Cheers
