Thanks all for your input - am making arrangement to get the tool - BBT-9 it is.

Can anyone offer guidance on how to open the crank on the HFS 3000 D. I am up in Africa - so a bike shop is not an option. Manual says right hand side is a left hand thread - but I cannot get the outer casing to budge. is there a special tool / trick to this - I have owned the bike since new and don't recall its ever been opened, so it could be seized - however I have hit it with a punch and it made no difference. Attached photo is the culprit in question. Any help appreciated

What happened to the unwritten rule - stop when the leader stops. Poor show AC

Is there a formula to work out you crank length Is the same formula used on road and MT bikes?

Sure no one out there has lost a Cannondale More info on the bike - Cannondale Rush SL Size Medium Fizik saddle - Blue / Silver Fork - Fox - odd carbon spacers in underheadset / possibly changed Colour - Mat black / silver writing / USA flag Extras - Cannondale swingarm protector Groupset - Sram has been offered for sale for R5200.00 - doubt its not stolen

Whats dcm?

In Mozambique - one of the local chaps is riding a very good looking Cannondale Mat black / duel suspension - American Classic rims would guess to be a medium anyone lost one?

Is is possible to change the Shimano 105 cassette from a 9sp to a 10 sp with some adjustments only - or does the derailer have to change as well the bike is a Raleigh 2007 RS6000

Has anyone experience on the pros and cons of these two units. Which is the best
