Thanks for your input on my crank problem . My old mate Ted here in Brizzy , put the word out about my mates accident & the phone rang yesterday. This guy at Wynnum ( about 30 min drive away ) heard of our plight & donated a fresh crank for a 6 pack !!!!!! Certainly renews ones faith in people eh !!! We can just press the taper off & replace with the good one . Thanks again Paul (Brisbane)
