Re: ??? About Crank and HP

Any turn is going to kill the nitride coating. .006" will be the max thickness of the coating. Bearings are .010" under usually. You can have it re-nitrided, but it is usually cheaper to buy a used crank and get it polished.

Small grooves in the crank don't really have a detrimental effect, as long as there aren't many and it is polished flat.
