Rethreading a crank arm

[Neil L]

Hi all. Need some help. I stripped the left crank arm on a cannondale F29. The bottom bracket and arm are a single unit and it will cost R6k to replace. I know it is possible to rethread with a bush/spacer but I am looking for someone in Jhb who can do it. Anyone know any engineering shops who could help?

They have not been able to help. Any other ideas?

Are you referring to a helicoil?

Interesting comment you made, the bottom bracket and the left crank arm on your bike is a single unit? Could you perhaps share a picture that of setup?

Thanks

 

Will contact them.  My bike is with a mechanic so I cannot take a photo now.

Am also curious to see this all in one crank and BB.  Online specs for a F29 is a BB30 and crank.... which is pretty standard !!
