Pedals coring out mounts

[JoeAverage]

I built a Lunacycle/Bafang BBSHD a few years back. The crank arms and pedals did exactly what you've detailed on the first trip across town. I rode home on throttle only with one pedal arm. Bafang aluminum was too soft for anyone larger than child size.

Similar problem: I'm a Clydesdale.

Tried unicycle arms but they were too short. Took alot of miles to figure this out.

Someone suggested: Shimano Kurbelarm-Set STEPS FC-E6000 175 mm

I found a set on eBay and bought them along with a new set of $25 mtn bike pedals on Amazon.

I'm on my second or third year with this setup and no further problems.

I bought a box full of various cranks last summer.
The CCM stock crank has been holding up, atleast for the few months I was riding it before I melted the windings. I think it must've been a 25H motor, much smaller then the 9C clone I am riding now. Not sure what the 9C is, maybe 35H?

Whenever I go looking for a Deore, or SLX crank the price bitchslaps me.

Hey, Vancouver and Victoria are the only Canuckian cities with survivable climates. Not that I'd move there or anything.

not that we'd have you or anything.

i'm surprised the colina didn't provide this link, his name appears on the site.

A few years back the Dirty-Sixer were causing a lot of talk by building oversized bikes with 90% custom parts for large and heavy riders. I am unsure whether they are still in business but maybe they can set you up with heavy duty cranks? And pedals when you're at it.
