Cook Bros Crank Spider Part

[midibiker]

Hi,

Do you know where I can find a silver crank spider part like in this picture. That would fit for a Cook Bros Crank.




Thanks

I don't think the spider can be removed from the early "dogbone" style Cook's cranks (or not easily; or not without potential damage).
The spider can be changed on the later E-series.

Hi Dm,

Yes that is what I heard someone else saying too. So I didn't attempt to go any further with it.

It looks like it is pressed in and I heard that one person has a terrible job trying to get it back on and gave up.

There was even something from the Crook Bros crank designer on one of the other bike forums where he stated "do not take off that spider".

I will just have to live with it.

Thanks
