Hi All,
Could really do with some advice about how to remove stuck cranks on my tired old early 90s Diamond Back Topanga MTB. I need to replace the bearings in the BB (which I think is a three piece loose bearing type - Shimano Exage 300LX if that helps), but the cranks are stuck firmly to the square taper. If anyone has any useful tips to remove these without causing any damage, I'd be very grateful.
As the more experienced of you will have no doubt noticed, I'm a bit of a novice to this, having taken cycling back up in the last few months, so I might struggle with the correct terminology - apologies!
