Nice demonstration. I would like to add that it's a good idea to replace the chain at the same time. Often, if the crank has worn to spikes and is throwing the chain, which is why it usually needs replacing, the chain will also be stretched and worn. Some people also replace the cassette, but this does not wear in the same way. I have never done so.

This is a good video and as other have learned how to do this i have too, But it should be mentioned that when you go to remove it that will be hard to do, that you will probably need a persuader ( a pipe you can slide the handle of the wrench into to give you better torque and better leverage to remove it, Anything to help you loosen it up and if you have penetrating oil spray some on before trying this wait about 20 mins and then it might come off as easy as your did.This is what i had to do.

Instead of grease on the pedal threads, because I had a pedal come loose once on a bike ride I actually used locktite to ensure they never came loose again on me, just a couple of drops generally. I like the thread locker that don't need heating up to remove pedals. I also just discovered if the pedals aren't tight enough one or both pedals will start to feel strange and looking down will be at an angle to the cranks because the threads are all chewed out, got to love those cheap aluminium cranks.

Good video, but you have to use some grease on the pulleytool and the square Axel before installing the new crankset. Maybe it was allready there? I allways clean the threads with a toothbrush some solvent and cloth, reapply Grease before playing the crank-extractor. This avoids most thread breakouts. Also a lot of small taps on the crank with a hammer near the axel while extracting will help it to come off. It will let off the pressure in tiny increments.

For some reason I can't get the square crank seated fully so that the front derailleur 3 shifter to reach far enough out with out rubbing. I can't fully reach the outer chainring. It shifts all the way but there is slight rubbing. I made the adjustment to extend the reach but it seems the crank is not fully in for the derailleur to reach. It seems if I tighten the allenhead attachment bolt just 1/8" in, it would work, but I can't get enough leverage to power the bolt and turn it in. Of course I don't want to snap it off. Any ideas how to get that crank fully seated?

I asked a Bike Shop to replace my cranset, but they told me they had their longest wrench on it and it wouldnt budge, they fear stripping the threads and ruining my frame. If I do this, and ruin my frame do you think my frame is still salvageable by inserting a Mid Drive electric motor? I don't want to buy that kit and then find that it requires the frame threads, I can't find anyone who knows, but it seems to slot straight through

A bike shop can look up the torque recommendations for you. As far as a torque tool goes..... It's the right thing to do, however, there are a lot of people that simply tighten by 'feel' and do just fine. You just risk damaging the threads if you over tighten and having it comes loose if you under tighten. I personally don't use a torque wrench on most of the mechanics I perform. That's the risk I'm willing to take.

Do all cranksets fit all bikes? Is it one size fits all?

@@PhilCrockett Sorry it took me so long to answer,Yes you don't have to peddle if you don't want to with an E-bike that has a throttle, You could use All throttle,the problem with that is It drains the Battery,some e-bike's have 2 batteries though and some longer lasting they are more expensive though,On my bike if I used all throttle I would get like 14-15 miles, Safe Riding Phil✌️

I have a 1996 TREK Mountain Track 820 with a Shimano Altus FC-CT91 Crankset. I'm having issues finding a similar crankset to install. It's a 38/32/24 tooth crankset. Can I install a different size crankset ie., 42/38/24? Would that work? Would appreciate anybody's input. Regards

I have a problem which is that I cannot find in any market the right Crankset. The right crankset is a triplet (of course) starting from at least 52T and ending to below 30T. This should be paired with a cassette 11-50T (ideally 10-50T). You might find this setting very strange if not totally irrational but I believe that it is the ideal one. I do not believe in just racing bikes or just a mountain bikes (although I have both). The bike has to perform excellent both speed-wise and torque-wise. In your every day bike riding you are faced with the need to speed in a flat road or a slight downhill and at the same time to climb (without the slightest effort) on a very steep hill (without standing up and pedaling). At the moment in one of my bikes (a trekking bike) I have adopted partially this belief of mine with a 48-36-26T crankset and an 11-46T cassette. However it is slow (48T is not ideal for speeding) and marginally OK for the steep hills. It needs at least 50T on the cassette. So since I have already bought an 11-50T cassette I need to make a crankset with a triplet starting with 52T and having as a lowest the 26T since there is none in the market with these specifications. Can anybody help me on this? Is this doable? What are the restrictions?

I had the worst nightmare ever trying to do This!!! I used the crank remover tool but somehow I managed to strip the threads inside the crank!!!! Tried hammering the crank off and using a crank puller, would not come off!!! Had to take it to a bike shop they eventually got it off by a lot of hammering and cursing lol

Phil Crockett I’ve learnt so much by watching these videos though when I first started out cycling permanently which was only like 4-5 years ago I didn’t even know how to replace a bike chain, I cycle every where now to work and back every night 6 nights a week. Mrs uses the car :) she won’t have the bike lol I recently replaced my MTB headset cups from loose balls to sealed cartridge all learnt from videos like this Thankyou:) I know how to do most things now to my bike
