Profile Racing – From The Dungeon: The First 19mm, 48-Spline Spindle

June 4, 2018

Profile Racing gives us a look at how they made the original 19mm, 48-spline spindles…

It’s that time or another round of From The Dungeon from Profile Racing. This time around, Jim Alley dug into the Dungeon to find the original tool they used to make the the 48-spline threads on the 19mm spindles. This design has become a pretty standard design in many BMX cranks rom many brands, so it’s pretty wild to see how it all started. Take a look!

“In celebration of Profile Racing’s 50th anniversary, owner and founder, Jim Alley, invites us into the company’s original Florida location where some sections of this dark and dusty industrial cave have been sealed off since 2004.
Over time, this building (appropriately named “The Dungeon” by employees) has become a time capsule; a host to historical artifacts capturing Profile’s legacy in both the automotive and bicycle industry.
Join us on this multi-episode series as we press record and let Jim imbue his wealth of knowledge on conjured pieces of the past.

This is From the Dungeon.

Welcome.
