Title: reground crank Post by: Peter on February 11, 2007, 14:09:09 pm hi guys,
i just got my new crank yesterday.. its a dpr and the box says: mains: 10 rods: 10 its kinda stupid to ask, but that means that the crank is 0.010 inch undersized right? this corresponds to 0.25 mm undersized bearings ,ok? thanks, Peter Title: Re: reground crank Post by: Fastbrit on February 11, 2007, 14:56:06 pm That's correct. It's common to grind a welded stroker or counterweighted crank to first undersize to make sure the journals are straight.
