Hi, I’m having a full knee replacement in a couple of weeks following an accident.
I’ve been recommended to get hold of a Hase pendulum pedal crank shortener. This will be attached to my crank and enable me to ride myself into reabhilitive fitness.
Therefore,anyone goy one for sale for a left handed crank?
Cheers.

    At that price I would be tempted to drill and cut a thread into the existing crank!!

    That’s why I’m looking to buy second hand.

    What kind of crank are you looking for (apart from left side, I mean)?

    How far do you need to shorten them? If you don't need to be so granular in terms of adjustments (either initially or ongoing), then tandem kids crank shorteners may work?

    The main issue seems to be the width of the cranks as modern ones can be too wide. I've got a pair knocking about you can have for what I paid for them second hand (provided I can still find them).

    They're this style, but I think a bit wider and a little less agricultural looking.

    Hi, do you think these would fit onto Shimano Ultegra 10 speed . I think the groupset is 6600.
    Thanks
