    Caution;  Merge;  Workers Ahead! I BROKE A SYNCROS '94 bolt-pattern CRANK ARM! HELP


    I am a low-budget single-speed peddler trying to keep a classic ride alive. I recently broke a 5-bolt pattern/old hyper-drive type '94 Syncros crank arm

    I want to know more than I do, as I love my '94 Jamis Diablo LE 1" SS setup deeply. I have two epic rides coming up the next two weekends. Does anyone know where I can swing a deal on a possible replacement set? I will give all the details I know, but I am sad as this is my only ride and its smack dab in the middle of the best peddling season in the blue ridge mtns. all year. Help a devoted bruther out!

    Much thanks to anyone who sees this endeavor worth their time!

    Are you wanting the same crank or very similar? Try a local bike co-op / recycler. Search on Ebay.

    If none of that works then assuming you have an english threaded 68mm bottom bracket, you can fit a huge array of cranks. You can still use something from that period and the bike will look 'normal' or (god forbid! ) you can upgrade to modern stuff.

    You'll come across square taper White Ind and race face cranks of that vintage quite often on Ebay.

    Middleburn also makes that 94 bcd in square taper.

    Middlebuen takes a 113mm bb spindle
    race face 110
    White ind. ?

    Measure what you've got for a BB and go from there.

    The Middleburns are around $300 new.

    No, you may not have mine................
