Eggbeater rebuild question
I have one of the first generations of eggbeaters (with the rubber end caps). Can I use a rebuild kit for the 2003 and newer versions? They have the aluminum end cap, which I don't need to use, but are the rest of the parts compatible?
Thank you.
Chris

Go on line and ask. I just rebuilt a set of candy pedals and it was easy. You may need to pry out the endcap. Crank bros are good about answering queries.

Only CBs not rebuildable that I know of are the Smartys.

I have the SL's with the screw-in end cap and just rebuilt them. You might be able to use the bushing and bearing from the post-02 kit, but the 02 EB's with the rubber endcap have an allen-head screw in the end of the spindle, where the later pedals have threads on the end of the spindle for a locknut. As long as you can reuse your allen screw, you should be good.
Here's a video showing the 02 rebuild with the setscrew: https://www.crankbrothers.com/support..._eggbeater.php
