Vinnydabutcher Posted January 13, 2011 Posted January 13, 2011 Im looking for some crankskins/protectors for a Trvativ Noir carbon crank. I think Tarmac was busy a while back sorting out some sets made out of 3M type adhisive plastic. Could someone please give me an idea of where to find some or even a DIY option. Thanx
rouxtjie Posted January 13, 2011 Posted January 13, 2011 Vinny you will only be able to protect against shoe rub, BBB makes strips that you can cut to a size you need 50-100 bucks, but the 3M option from builders might be cheaper. Protecting the bottom of the crank...carbon area around the pedal hole is going to be tough and that is where most of my cosmetic damage is...dont think a skin will protect the knocks it takes there
Weight Weenie Posted January 13, 2011 Posted January 13, 2011 race face makes a rubber crank boot, dunno if it will fit though
Vinnydabutcher Posted January 13, 2011 Author Posted January 13, 2011 Thanx Rouxtjie, I`ll take a look at it. You still happy with your Zula? You just got the jump on me for that one - but I got mine a bit later. Want to keep it looking good!

Regard Posted January 13, 2011 Posted January 13, 2011 Yamaha in Centurion. Ask for sheet of clear M3 protective material. I think they sell it in 1mx1m strips and you can cut it to size. Works like a bom. I even use it on my chainstay!
