  1. I have question, shocking right?! Anyway I am trying to replace the bottom bracket on my trek and I
    can not get the cranks off. Any ideas? I have taken off the screws and they will not come off. I
    have tried a hammer but nothing. Is there a tool or a trick to it?

    thanks,

    Jim

    Try a crank puller.

  5. Well, thanks for the prompt help. You would think the bike shop would ahve said oh yeah you need
    this tool as well. I only spent $160 on parts and tools for the bike. Oh well live and learn.

    Well have a great week and enjoy the crazy posts on the group. I have not been on this group in over
    two years and the psycho Mike is still around, AMAZING! Why don't people just ignore him?

    Well,thanks!!!

    That is the question we have been seeking an answer to for..... well, at least two years. ;-)

  9. It might be longer than that. But when I was on several years ago he was well entrenched in this
    group spouting his spout!

    BTW, the bike shop loaned me the crank puller and I was up and running in about 5 minutes. It took
    me longer to drive to the bike shop than it did to do the repair.

    Bike is now ready to kill a squirrel or two. Just kidding!
