I took my bike for a little ride around a rocky area in my town that is being excavated and has some cool rock formations and I banged my drive side crank arm. It's bent inwards towards the frame and comes in contact with my pulley wheel mount. It wasn't even a very hard or fast impact but was enough to bend the arm.
I tried different ways of bending it back at home in my bench vice...broke the bench! lol For now I managed to put a spacer in there to keep it from hitting the pulley mount but I'd like to straighten it at some point.
I'm afraid of bending the spindle instead of the crank arm when clamping it. Does anyone have any experience that they can share?
Thanks!
