Need some monkey help here. I did not screw my pedal in tight enough switching them between bikes, when for a ride, and half my pedal was sticking out of my right (drive-side) shimano slx crank arm.
So I was thinking about using a helicoil. Anyone have any other suggestions? Has anyone done this before? Will it hold up to downhill use? I couldn't find anything on google in the way of a bike specific kit, but I have heard they make one and some bike shops have them, although the few lbs's around here don't.
I called helicoil as well and failed to get in contact.
Sooo... I don't want to buy a new crankset for like $200, help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Edit: Also, does anyone know if they are hollow? And if they are can I still do this?
