cheers Bob, i'll try them too.
Pete at cogbox was very helpfull, any wedgemating they do they send to someone in the States, its an option, but if i can get it done in the UK it would be less hassle.....

What about Jim at Stateside? I don't know if he does that but worth a try I guess!

Never done one before, as ive always gone down the flanged crank route.

I'll take a look at whats involved.

right we have to weld up the end of your crank, and weld in inside of your flywheel.

the machine a taper on both surfaces then grind the final few thou.

The cranks no problem, but ive got to see if i can get the fly wheel on the grinder.
