Hi, Just read the park tools web site on these cranks, have removed the outer alum. 10mm cover and the 8 mm crank bolt but nothing happens, the left hand crank is as tight as when it is bolted on, what do I do
.
Asking mainly because my cranks are a half mm loose horizontally ( left/ right) after the BB was faced recently (Nick said to tighten up the bolt but it is rock soild). There is no other movement in the cranks.
Thanks

put it all back together and undo the 8mm bolt that then acts on the washer and pulls the crank off.
Or if your is not self extracting go buy and ISIS crank puller and use that."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."
