  1. I just attached my profile cranks from unicycle.com to my
    profile hub and found that the left crank is uneven with the
    right, it is bent in a way. This is noticable by the naked
    eye and I know it is the left crank because George Barnes is
    the person who helped me to put it on (thank you) and when
    we noticed the problem we took his crank off of his Uni and
    put it onto mine, unsuprisingly the crank alignment was
    perfect with his crank but when mine was again put on it
    again looked obviously uneven. I have pictures of the wheel
    with his crank on it and with mine which I will have on this
    thread in the next few hours.

    Has this problem ever occured before? And if so what did the
    person do about it.

    Also how do you recommend I go about dealing with this issue
    with unicycle.com and profile racing co.

    Thanks - I'll have pictures up for you in no time.

  2. Yeah, it was goofy. I beat you to the picture, see attached.

    My crank was perfect, but fluffy's was either to the left or
    right of straight.

    Apparently Profile didn't attach the splined bit in the
    crank at the proper orientation. They were also nice enough
    to not center the axle in the hub. Out of the box it was
    1/16" off center.
