Yes those allen keys are same as I have, maybe i could add a pipe bit to end of the allen key , to give it more leverage. I will try that today. Yeah that defo will tighten the nut PMSL :D Ok I wont use a washer, and like i said above will try tightening the bolt more with the allen...

Well Iwill try a washer but the end of bolt seems to be flush with end of crank arm opening

Well at present I only need the left pedal crank arm, as it seems to keep loosening as I pedal, even though the nut is all way in to BB spindle. I thought i had tightened it ok but obviously its not enough. I had thought about putting some thread lock glue on nut, but will i ever be able to...

I dont really know what you mean by tapers can you do a picture, also is it possible then to buy seperate pedal arms

Well Im afraid I dont have a torque wrench, so I guess I will just have to try and tighten it up a bit harder. would it be the BB spindle thread damaged then. as the bolt does go all way in and was very tight

Well it seems I have spoke too soon about pedal arm is sorted, as today i went out on bike and felt the left pedal arm loose again, obviously by pedalling has unscrewed the bolt which hold pedal arm. I was wondering if to use thread lock liquid. but then if at a later date i need to change the...

Well I have sorted out the problem about my left pedal arm was too loose but now I have banged it on harder to bb spindle plus used special bolts it’s much better now as before it kept slipping. Regards to the above what saneagle said I think he means the size of the end part of that silver bit...

Do you mean the end part of that silver piece what has to push against bb spindle

Bingo Ive sorted it. it wasnt the BB after all. I just assumed it was silly me. but it was the left pedal arm which seemed to keep getting loose. I tried it again really banged it hard onto the BB spindle, and got these special bolts which arrived today just in time too the pedal arm now is...

I give up Ive tried to get chain cog side pedal etc off the BB spindle but it seems its jammed on so tight just cant get it off. I even tried heating up spindle, but thats a bit awkward. even had a job trying to screw in this tool to remove the pedal arm. its ok on non chain side, but dont...

I do have a blow gun actuially never thought about that. But its like i said before getting the time to do anything, probabaly sundays is best

Yes sorry I did start post about BB tool. But I also had a problem removing the chain side 3 chainrings. as very tight on BB spindle I was going to take it to a shop, But now decided to try again. like saneagle said. I will spray a lot of WD40 on BB spindle. and keep trying to remove the 3...

Yes its what I said then non chain side anticlockwise, chain side is clockwise as both pointing to back wheel

LOL sorry mate, But no way can I remove the BB when bike is right way up, as I dont have a bike stand, so I have to turn bike upside down. now you stated that both nuts on BB go towards front wheel, so take the left side of bike in a standing position like you said towards front wheel...

so if I did bike upside down, non chain side will be anti-clockwise and chain side clockwise

No the bike will be upside down when i do it. so what you saying then when unscrewing the BB nuts. both bb nuts are anticlockwise as my front wheel will be to my right when i do non chain side. and the chain side front wheel will be to my left. or have i got that completely wrong.

Yeah I understood the 1st bit to make sure that silver part is all way unscrewed. and i think what you man about BB tool is to make sure you use maybe a socket in end to hold it. I think basicly that cog wheel side where chain goes needed a few squirts of WD40 to loosen it more. I wont need...

When you say tool I take it you mean this https://ibb.co/K9TD0B5 I am a bit confused with what you said above about a bolt and some washers to hold the BB tool into the BB where do you fit those then as I am lost now I may try doing it again

Yeah they should have, But its very hard to find a bike shop to do stuff, as a lot say they dont touch electric bikes even though, its nothing to do with electrc part a lot of bike shops will lose out, as most jobs are to do with non electric. just seems a bit silly to me. I went to 1 bike shop...
