Schnavel Posted September 13, 2018 Posted September 13, 2018 Wavey spring washer would have sorted this out - it takes up a little space and also preloads the bearings correctly.
Rigardt@Scott Posted September 13, 2018 Author Posted September 13, 2018 Wavey spring washer would have sorted this out - it takes up a little space and also preloads the bearings correctly.Probably... but at the point it developed play it was just after a bunch of other issues - had been off the bike for nearly 3 weeks because of one issue after the next, and I wat gatvol, so I just bought new.
Pikey Posted September 13, 2018 Posted September 13, 2018 It is a PF30 crank (from my Spaz Stumpjumper), so even with a bb30 bb on the bike I had to remove the tensioner to get it to fit, and that means there is a slight bit of play in the crank which I cannot get rid of. When I use a 1mm spacer it preloads the bearing too much, and without it there is play. I'm sure there is a solution, but I have had way too many bike issues lately and I just was not keen to try and figure this out - buying another crankset was just easier...That sucks but am with you ,would of also just bought a new crank .
