Right,

I'm getting a lot of grinding coming from the bottom bracket of my Talon 3. I need to know what kind of Crank Extractor/Puller to buy.

I've been looking at the park tools model - http://www.parktool.com/product/crank-p ... nks-ccp-22

Does anyone know if it's the square taper one I need?

Thanks Guys.

    so what do you have fitted to your bike?

    Everything so far is just the standard stuff that it came with at the minute :-)

    And what is standard?

    You haven't even said what year it is! try finding the specs for your year (save us doing it for you)...or post a pic and we'l point you where to go from that.

    It's a shimano M361 crankset and a shimano octalink bottom bracket :-)

    It's a 2011 talon 3

    so you need a Octalink (splined) Crank tool

    so if you read the info on the link provided you would have seen the answer
    NOTE: For cranks using the ISIS Drive or Octalink system, use the CCP-44 or the CWP-7
