Crimping sleeves, devices and methods of crimping stents onto delivery devices are disclosed. The stent is located within a channel formed by a crimping sleeve including a set of crimping elements located about the channel. The crimping elements are connected by rotatable links such that compressing at least two opposing crimping elements together results in a reduction in the diameter of the channel and crimping of a stent located therein on a delivery device located therein.
