    depending on what crank it is you can buy the tool online or in halfords/cyclesuperstore or a good local bike shop for less than €20 and...KEEP IT!

    A crank puller is required to remove the cranks. (Cheap as chips)
    You need to provide a photo or specifics for the BB. Either internal splines for a sealed bearing or hook spanner for cup and cone. I doubt you will pay more than 20 euro to buy both tools.

    Was in Cyclesurgery in Dundrum. Shocking expensive. I'll never use em again as don't plan on using old bits like those. But small chance I suppose. Cheers

    If you can spin down to Pearse St. some afternoon, I'll do it for you free of charge in about 5 minutes. Put up pics first though to make sure I am not wasting your time.
