Yes I can, Yes I am, Yes I did...Repeat.
I need to replace my left crank arm on a mirage campag black 175mm compact.

I cant find one anywhere. But more to the point all I see are cranksets advertized for sale without th eleft crank arm. What am I missing or am I th eonly two legged cyclist out there?

Where do to get just th eleft crank arm?????
 
When you buy a chainset it comes as a pair, although to be fair the advertising images do tend to show just the RH chainset without the LH arm. You might need to speak to your LBS to see if they can order just a LH one.

Be aware when ordering L/H cranks, if square taper, you need to make sure the square taper is in the same orientation as yours, if that makes sense.
If your going like for like, probably not a problem but if you mix makes, you can end up with one crank 90 degrees out.
This has NOT happened to me I might add...:blush::laugh:...allegedly.

Surely if it's ninety degrees out you remove it and turn the crank through ninety degrees and reattach. Stop and think about it....

Do you mean 45 degree out?
