Reed, Square taper cranks have a limited number of installation cycles before they will be too deformed, although that number could be fairly large. The theory is that the each properly torqued installation pushes the crank taper further into the spindle.
For a travel bike that needs crank removal, I would switch to a non square taper crank. --Metin On Thursday, September 13, 2018 at 4:05:03 PM UTC-7, Reed Kennedy wrote: > > On Thu, Sep 13, 2018 at 1:34 PM Lum Gim Fong <john1...@gmail.com > <javascript:>> wrote: > >> I say "if you dare" because a second mounting might void warranty. >> > > Why in the world would removing and remounting a crank void the warranty? > These are not single use items. > > I must remove my René Herse drive side crank arm every time I pack my bike > in to an airline case.
