Crank Extractor Query

[eBay_special]

Hello again gang,

I know there are cyclists here who are familiar with a chainset made by Sugino called the Mighty 900.
I'm just about to fit a NOS one to my wifes Kona Kilauea and was wondering what crank extractor fitted it please?

I'm installing a Royce BB without lock rings, so I'll probably have a few goes before getting the chainline right: hence the disassembly question.

as always, many thanks for your assistance.

It's a perfectly standard 22mm x 1mm thread, so 99+% of all extractors will work.

Nice cranks.

Thanks so much - this means I can purchase an extractor to remove the existing Shimano chainset and it will fit the Sugino?

Yep.

The only common exceptions are some older French cranks which used their own standards, but your Shimano and Sugino cranks will use the same extractor - Cyclo, Park, Shimano, Campag - pick a brand you like.

Campag! Really? I have two early 90's road bikes on Campagnolo throughout but no crank extractor - would be very useful to be able to do those and the Sugino/Shimanos with the Campagnolo tool.
You suggest that this is possible n'est pas?

In fact just after I posted, I realised that there's another fairly common exception.

Most Campag cranks use the standard 22mm x 1mm extractor thread - in fact Campag may have been the first to introduce it (I'm not certain). But there were some Campag cranks in the "C-Record" period of the late eighties, and possibly into the early nineties, that used a 7mm allen key auto extractor that had a left hand thread. These, of course, need a special left-hand threaded extractor if the auto-extractor has been lost or damaged.

But certainly, whatever does for the Shimano will do for the Sugino, and unless you're unlucky enough to have one of the exceptions mentioned, the Campags too.

thanks once again one-eyed_jim - both my road bikes [ 1 c-record & 1 croce d'aune] use the allen key extractors, so no point in buying the Campag extractor after all. It won't do the left hand thread which presumably needs a dedicated tool.
