modern hollowtech crank question

clockworkgazz · Apr 13, 2009

looking to remove (and refit to another frame) a LX hollowtech II crankset but never done this before- looks like I need special tools for this- anyone know what I will need to buy and approx how much- considering going to the LBS :? ?

cheers

If the same as XT hollow tec then an allen key and a round plastic 'key' will remove the crank. They are easy to re-move. un-like the xt-r.

Oh not expensive and easy. I re-moved my XT in 30 seconds

Gaz use a hacksaw to cut the cranks off, fit some Bullseyes and get real!
