Those drawings were done in ProE. I am pretty good with Inventor, ProE, and AutoCAD.

Where did you get those drawings? I am interested.


I believe he was one of the Cannondale engineers.

First of the new rods and an in house stroker crank as well. Brian did a great job as the crank is perfectly true. He was pretty pumped about it. Just need to get some plugs for the crank pin and press the gear back on. The piston kit arrived last week so looks like I get to build my first engine since december. Play time is over. laugh.gif

If anyone is interested I will be placing an order for some more rods. With a bigger order maybe a lower price.

Nope thats just the rod. There are cheaper options like a falicon or crankworks but this is more of a long term rod thats cheap to rebuild down the road instead of tossing it when it gets a little cage wear.

Well suppossedly the order at last got done and should be here this week. I am still wary of the cp piston/ carrillo ordering dept so I will go through this batch to make sure they didnt mess it up like they do the pistons. They had a question about something and never bothered to call for 3 weeks so it sat on their desk in limbo. So hopefully we can get these cranks up and running soon.
