'17 Db Recoil 29 Crank Removal Questions
I need some help with my 2017 Recoil 29. A neighbor sold it to me for $10. The tires were flat. Brake cables were cut (no brakes). It had only one working gear. And more. So I decided to make it my Winter project.
It has an SR Suntour XCC crank that I want to remove. Especially since someone used oil-based paint on the frame, crank and pedals (and wheels, brake and gear cables, handlebar, etc.)
Does anyone know which tools I will need to remove the crankset? I tried but could not get the information online.I ordered a standard crank puller set on eBay. But it was too big. The bottom bracket has 16 slots in it but I don't know the size of the socket I will need. And, to be sure this never happens again, I ordered a micrometer.
There is a cotter pin inside the the left, non-drive side crank arm. Does anyone know what it's there for?
Thank you for any help or ideas on this.
