looks like the teeth won't even line up, what the fuck??
-
There is two different spline pitches for 22mm cranks. The profile is different than most if not all Taiwan made 22mm cranks.
-
so only spline drive profile sprockets fit on profile cranks?
-
and does that mean i can buy an offbrand 22mm ti spindle? i would have to buy the profile one?
-
What? Two spline types for the same size axle? That is just silly
-

its best to stick with one brand....you got profile cranks? get a profile sprocket. that way you don't have to worry about it.

I'm running a Tree Lite SD on my Columns with a 22mm Stolen spindle which is paired with kink spindle bolts. You can run any spline drive sprocket as long as it is 22mm compatible.
-
tree doesn't make 22mm spline drive
and I already bought the sprocket and cranks so wtf

Profile stuff is tricky like that, it'll go on there but it'll be a bitch the whole way through. Taiwan stuff goes easy on Taiwan stuff.

Agreed.

Damn really? Ive been using a Madera 22 mm spline sprocket with eclat tibias. I can only use LSD because it's a 2.5 piece crank design, but thats what I need anyway. Surprised the cult one isnt compatible because I was super close to getting that
-
so how do I make it fit? torch the sprocket, freeze the spindle? is it never going to come off once I install it?
-
Can you return either the cranks or the other bits to get it all fitting?
If not maybe sell the bits that don't fit to a buddy for a bit less so it's not a complete loss?
What a bitch tho, I thought parts in bmx were more compatible nowadays?
Email profile tho and see what they say and why. Then tell us.
