It was the Stainless steel spindle, which is still OK. The end bearing is
what failed. The inner race, nut and washer pulled right thru the outer
race of the bearing. The balls are scattered on FL7. Clarification, the
bearings balls.

Interestingly, I have 2 responder's saying they have experienced the same or
similar problem. I read the Look recall statement and they list 12 reported
incidents. So, we have 3 so far on this list in 15 minutes. Hmmm..

Brian,

Which model was yours? I've got several years on a couple different pairs
of Eggbeater SLs, with no problems other than some lateral axle/bearing slop
that developed on one (I've had the same deal with other brands of pedals
too, always on the left side, so I figure it's gotta be a consistent
side-loading quirk in my stroke alignment). I haven't heard of any issues
with any of the CBs, but of course would be curious to hear if others have
had experiences like yours.

Mike

Does anyone know if Crank Brothers have done a recall on any of their
pedals? I had one break off the axle while pedaling and I'm considering it
a freak accident. I'm not interested in pursuing it unless there's a
recall. Brian
