Default Making crank suitable for high revs ?

Is there anything that can be done to a stock crank to help it to rev higher? Also what exactly is a knifed cranked? The application I would be using is k24 type s if that matters. Thanks guys.

You asked a very complex question, yet probably do not even know it... The Rev issue has little to do with the construction of the crank, but more to do with the stroke to rod ratio, and rod angles. there is a world of information out there about this one, you have to just put your thinking cap on, and dig in...

Here is somewhere to start. http://www.theoldone.com

go to the archive section, and start reading.

so your telling me that the stock K24 crank wouldnt be as good for high revving as a shorter (stroke) crank made out of toothpicks? wow, thats a cheap alternative...
