HOW TO REMOVE a CRANK ARM from an OLD ROAD BIKE!

This is seriously soooooo impossible without a crank puller.

THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS!
I've been trying to figure out what tool I needed for my brothers old Raleigh, finally sorted out that it was a cotterless crank but it wasn't until this video that I actually saw a cotterless crank with guts that matched mine. I'll pick up one of these tools on amazon now.

Well Explained and thank you much for the video. Couldn't find a single video on CZcams entailing that dust cap in this video.

"Does happen to be threaded...deliberate course of action" I thought that was really funny for some reason

[@jubeman]

Thanks for this. Fixing up an old roady and hadn't seen those little nuts in the cranks before. Used the crank puller after that, as normal.

I have a mountain bike, I used a low quality tool to try to pull off the crank to address a bottom bracket creak. I screwed it in to the full depth but the threads of the tool were too poorly machined and it stripped the threads when I tried to pull it. I tried a gear puller. That didn't work. It's only a 2 year old bike but that crank was on there stupid tight. I forgot I'd removed the bolt and went biking really hard the next day. The crank fell off after one mile

Just the video I needed to sort the cranks on my old Raleigh. Cheers!

First, thank you for the video. Next, looking at your crank got me in the creative mood today... Ive been wanting to step into a custom length crank... I'm 6-7 riding a XXL trek frame.. But to get my angles right.. The seat is way go high for my headset... So I thought about buying longer cranks.. Well, I'm not able to come to grips with 500+$ cranks.. So back to the point of your cranks... They look like box wrenches..🤔 I wonder if I could use some snap on wrenches that match 195-200mm length.. Where I can thread the ends to match my crank bolt and pedal bolts... Just some way out there thoughts... If I do this, I'll post up.

Can the sprocket be removed from the crank arm? If so how? Thanks

[@housesforsale6892]

[@lowjack100]

i like this thing, its raw but to the point. nice

[@lowjack100]

good one shot and you didn't drop anything , impressed

[@DonBello]

My crank's been threaded. How can I rethread it so that I can use my crank puller?

[@colewilson316]

Are you from newburgh ny?

[@leor_ubin]

Thanks a lot !

[@cepkorppa]

how did you remove the part holding the pedals though? I cant get mine off no matter the force I apply!

[@MisterSal9895]

Same... Did you figured it out?

[@appleshampoo324]

You have to turn it the other way to loosen it. So to the right.

[@vintagesteel]

Mallet will work to get the cranks out too in case you don't have a crank puller

[@thomasanderson9296]

That crank was NOT stuck

[@Hot_Topic]

Never even took the crank arm off! What a waste of time

[@hugobrown2516]

You didn't show how to remove crank arm. You showed how to remove crank arm and chain rings. I just want to replace crank arm. Only.

Proper English: "I am" - not you are. "I want" - not you want.
