List,
I have a very pretty right side crank arm (only) Stronglight Model 49
that appears new and unused, but the pedal threads are not perpendicular
to the arm. When a pedal is on, it is obviously crooked, as if the
pedal had a bent axle. There's a little sticker on the back of the arm
with "BSA" written in ballpoint pen, so perhaps someone tried to convert
from French threads to English, and botched the job. Question: can
anything be done to salvage the arm, or is it just so much scrap
aluminum now?
Thanks,
