been there mate... :LolLolLolLol:

Welded a metal bar vertically to one I had and smacked feck out of it, that did the job!

cannot beat a knockometer!  :2funny:

Dark Diggler:
Just crush the freewheel in a vice and turn the wheel anti clockwise, do about 3 or 4 a month at work

kev-s:
jesus :shocked: :shocked: :shocked:

no need for that!!

all i do is remove the centre lockring, take off the teeth ring and catch all the bearings and pawls, so ur just left with the freewheel's bare body on the hub which then can be clamped in a vice and just twisted off

that way u can just rebuild the freewheel and you have caused no damage

Dark Diggler:
Apologies, I assumed we were at the point where the freewheel is fooked and has no value, my method is used when replacing a shagged ungreased freewheel from a hub, quickly and efficiently.  Or if you can't be arsed stripping the £4 freewheel  :LolLolLolLol:
