in a word: _fuck_.
now I still have to figure out how to get this goddamned crank off using asymmetrical force
thinking about it I may’ve just discovered why this thing was abandoned originally
the middle gear is kinda fucked (as in needs replacing - bad teeth, a crack) and if they tried to pull the crank and fucked up the removal _then_, original owner may’ve been all “oh FUCK THIS” and got a newer better bike, probably something with an aluminium frame instead of steel for lower weight.
this is one of those times I wish I had a… wuzzut called… rober press? big screw, pushes a thing into (or out of) another thing. that’d be good here right?
it's not a rober press (or robur press spelt correctly) it's a ... fuck I can't remember. Kind of a screw press but instead of pressing plates together it just presses a little circle or something small into or out of another thing. Plus probably other stuff, idk. dang
@moira
I hadn't come across anything as small as robur press seems to be, but arbor press, screw press, fly press... All bigger variations on the theme.
…and the agony of right side defeat.
