Shimano SLX right crank arm pedal thread stripped

Recommended Posts

Hey guys

So I have a pair of shimano slx cranks on my bike and i have now noticed that the right hand pedal thread has become somewhat stripped and now allows the pedal to shift facing downwards when i put any weight on it

 

What i was wanting to know was does anyone here know of a machining or engineering place that will be able to drill it out and to a cap to replace the thread? In Cape Town

 

Regards

Angus

The right hand one's a standard imperial thread, so most places will be able to do it.

 

Link Engineering in Salt River have done a few for me in the past though.

It seems I have stripped the thread of either my crank arm or pedal, not sure yet. First mission is to get the pedal out (slipping). Anyone know of a LBS / specialist who will be able to assist me in the cpt area?

Wheels Manufacturing make a kit for repairing the RD attachment thread.  It involves drilling out the hole, re tapping and fitting a threaded sleeve.  Not cheap so more likely to be used on frames without sacrificial hangars.  In theory there is a helicoil available but I have not found the right one locally.

Link engineering in salt river charged me 210 and was done the next day

Highly recommend them 

 

shot for the feedback panik. I need exactly the same thing done for my old cranks. Hit a tree and stripped the crank thread.
