How to remove the crank plastic cover

gobears81 · 02-16-2021, 01:58 AM

I think I need to tighten the chainring bolts because while pedaling hard uphill today I heard some creaks.

Does anybody know how to remove the plastic cover on the front crank?

Thank you.

That is a stamped steel one piece chainring set up. you can only attach it to the spindle. hopefully your creak is coming from else where.
