You removed the crank bolt first, right? And just to confirm, you have the tool specifically for square taper cranks (it has a blue handle, not a black handle)?
Often if it's not budging for some reason, you run the risk of stripping the dust cap threads if you apply that much force. If there are no bolts or washers in the way, then it should come off without so much effort. You can probably replace the middle and big ring without removing the crank. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
