yo, i got a frame second hand off some geezer that i know. the crank arms are truative, they have allen key (i think americans call it a hex wrench ??) crank bolts holding them on the bottom bracket. but they dont turn round atall, i want to make it tighter coz its just loose but it doesnt move atall.

does any one know whats wrong ?? cheers for any help. spencer

Are the crank arms loose on the axle or is the axle loose in the BB shell? The bottom bracket could be shot.

Try moving them with your muscles.

I USED MY MUSCLES !!! lol

heres a pic of it if it helps ???

and its just the crank arm that moves not the BB, its the bolt that holds it on its like its welded on or something.
