ok. thank you.

you mean like a spare 1'' crank? In line with this i was planning to take a piece of steel and made machined to custom specs. I can lathe it to 1'', drill the center, bolt it into the crack center thread, and also make a key slot in line crank slot and put a key between the two pieces...
