Guys I'm new to all this so apologies. I have a KZ1 Kuwi frame and I bought these Sugino GT cranks.

The cups seem to big to fit in the frame. What do I need to buy to make this work. Why couldn't they just make one size fits all for once !

Mike- if you're out there dude, did you see the pics of the frame you sent me all built up? This is Kuwi number 2.

Two point:

A) yes they will fit, they HAVE to be tight.

B) Why do you have two usernames?

Thanks, I am the owl

When I initially regsitered, I accidentally put I was under 18! Got an e-mail about it and it looked like it was going tobe tricky so I registered again. My first user name is my most commonly used so I 'default' to taht one on most sites

Cheers,
