1. I will start with the removal of a 48 spline 3-piece crank without a crank arm removal/setting tool. Then a brief overview of crank arm removal with the crank arm removal tool.
2. Next, I will go over the removal and installation of a new sprocket. The sprocket is a Shadow Conspiracy Kobra.
3. Preinstallation or "dry fit" to measure how many spacers you need to position the crankarm and sprocket correctly.
4. Installation of crank without a setting tool. I show how i use my "Rob Brace" to intall the crank and position the spindle the most efficient way i know how. Then a breif overview of crank arm installation with the crank arm setting tool.
5. My tricks and tips to the Installation of 8 spline 3-piece cranks.

My mission is to keep more bicycle riders in the sport.
Whether you can't afford to take it to a shop,
you don't have a way to transport it to the shop,
you don't have time to take it in for repairs,
or you just want to learn to fix, repair, and upgrade your own bike,
I will help to keep your bike running smooth and you riding longer. - Jak na to + styl
This is by far the best tutorial ive seen. Explained in depth no bs filler!
Dave nonya thank you. I try to make videos that i would want to watch if i wanted to learn how to do something.
Hello again rob! I havr these tree universal modular guards, they seem to fit the fork nicely. Just gotta remove the back wheel, bit of a pain since i slammed it haha. Probly gonna be ordering an eclat overguard
Thank you for showing the detail on the sprocket bolt. My friends chainring was wobbling all over the place because he had lost his bolt. I didn’t even know it was even there but we were able to fix his! Every little detail matters!
I WAS SO WAITING FOR THE "ROB BRACE" TO GO THROUGFH THE DRYWALL. I WONDER HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE PUT A HOLE IN THEIR DRYWALL BECAUSE OF THAT. LMAO
Fine job on the instruction. Definitely helped me understand something.
tip for the loctite, all you have to do is heat the bolt up and it will melt and you can remove it, if it is a heat sensitive area just heat up the wrench and that will heat the bolt enough to melt the loctite
Nice video, very informative! Thanks!
Thanks, pretty much the only useful video i found so far. all the others are with a bunch of mechanic shop tools etc. this is way more realistic. Helped me a ton and saved me 40 bucks :D
You're welcome. Glad i could help.
great video, very informative, thanks man!:)
Awesome tutorial!Thanks!

I used exact length of spacers for driver and non driver side but the distance of the crank arms from frame where the rear wheel is a little off by few mm ( non driver side crank arm is closer to the chainstay frame than the driver side crank arm if I would put the finger through the gap I have more space on driver side than non driver side) is that normal?
Thank You.
what size are the crank arm bolts?
Do i need crank tool to install wtp legacy? its 2.5 pcs cranks.
What are the spacers called on the Chainring?
What size Allen wrench?
My crankarm is giving a loud noise. Im trying this
What is the bearings size??
I was wondering why my 3 piece crank screws came with a small blue drop of what looked like paint on it… it’s loctite!
I have the exact same shadow conspiracy cobra sprocket
Nice!
What grease?
Do i have to remove the non drive side crank arm bolt to or just the drive side only if i just wanna get the sprocket off to change it?
Depends if they are 2 piece or 3 piece you would only have to remove on side
So i just got odyssey calibur cranks, got it all on using only a 22 mm sprocket adaptor on driveside and cone spacer on non driveside, cranks fit nicely, however my spindle is only a few mm from the end of my crank arms, im pretty sure its not bottoming out. Im pretty sure my hub guards are throwing my chainline off causing noise in my chain and cranks. My question is, is it cool to put my guard on outside of my dropouts
Dave nonya. I would try it and see if that helps.
Thanks goodsir!
If taking the hub guard off helps your chain alignment but your hub guard won't fit on the outside of your dropouts, You could look into a hub guard that installs on the outside of your dropout. I fabricated my own a while ago. I just cut a rectangle of steel, drilled a hole in it for your axle, and heat it up and bend it so it goes under your chain.
Why is my brand new kink Williams complete “slipping” after I installed a new sprocket!!! By “slipping” I mean that the WHOLE crank arm on the drive side comes detached from the spindles…
I just forgot which bolt to loosen first on the cranks lol
Could you undo the crank bolt just a bit a hammer it
Yeah. I've done that before. One time it was so stuck that hammering on it destroyed the threads on the bolt and in the spindle. That's why i don't show this method. This is why a crank remover tool threads all the way in. In case it is really stuck.
Dude, have a Shadow Conspiracy crank set and the tool. I've been hammering away trying to remove them and getting nowhere. It's doing my head in.
Did you remove the sleeve from the setter/removal tool?
@@thebasementbikeshop2336 Yes, it is moving slowly. Only it taking forever. Just a really tight fit.
what are them washers called
A lot of companies call them spindle spacers
So how far it has to be if not in contact with the frame or if it needs a spacer? What lets u know u need a spacer between the sprocket and bottom bracket?
quarter of an inch roughly maybe a little more
the audio sound like your a mediation instructor for some reason.
So when i take the crank and sprocket off on my bike, there is no sprocket bolt. Any suggestions how to remove it? I was told it may be pressed on?
What kind of crank is it? Or what kind of bike if it is the stock crank?
The Basement Bike Shop it is a 26” Hyper cruiser
The Basement Bike Shop 3pc design i believe. The left side crank removes from the shaft. On the right side, the sprocket comes off with the crank. It has like a star ring around the base near the sprocket.
Mafia bikes dead bikes bro haha
If your sprocket is too far outward, you don't need the cone spacer
Maybe one small spacer. As long as your sprocket doesn't hit your frame on the rear triangle.
why is he wearing knee gaurds
Because I'm bracing the bike with my knees while i hammer the spindle out of the arm. If you brace the frame against something solid like a wall, you risk bending the frame. I hope that helps.
@@thebasementbikeshop2336 thanks just wondoring
Why use locktight if it is going to destroy the bike? If you can't remove the crank then the frame is junk. Id rather not use that crap
This was so informative. Not... As soon as I put the securing bolt to the crank to the arm the sprocket is out of alignment and bends the sprocket
Is there something in between the sprocket and the crank arm on the spindle? There should be nothing. Make sure the adapter is put in from the other side too so the sprocket sits directly against the crank arm. Hope that helps!
Why tf are you wearing knee pads 😂😂😂
