  1. So yeah, the dust cap on one of my cranks snapped in half. I know it
    isn't THAT big of a deal, but on the subject of replacement-

    What exactly is the difference between those 3 caps, and are any of
    them any better than the others?

    If it matters, I ride a Torker DX.

  2. The alloy ones screw in, and are metal so they won't break. The only
    downside is you need an allen wrench to install and remove them.

  3. I'm not sure that those dust caps will fit on a Torker DX. Those dust
    caps are for cotterless (square taper) cranks. The Torker DX has
    splined cranks and may have a different size dust cap. You'll need to
    check on that.

    and it didn't work

  5. Don't think any of them will work. they will fit the torker CX, LX and
    the TX. But not the DX. Mine end caps like what would be on the others
    is an allin bolt with a plastic washer.
    Good luck,
    😄 😄 😄

    Never underestimate stupid people in large groups

    It is always better to keep your mouth shut and have people question
    your intelligence, than to say something stupid and leave them in no
    doubt.

    Don't worry about looking like a dork for diff color cranks. You ride a
    uni, lol.

    doesn't, then no, it won't.
