I'm an idiot, removing a freewheel?...

 :LolLolLolLol: just wasted £5 on a freewheel remover for nothing now  :crazy2:

SaMAlex:
Haha, nice scan Danny. Ive not seen that for a while.

Those front hubs are NOTHING like Gsport front hubs, eh  :-X

The red, built up pair of hubs in those pics are the ones that Ive recently put on a bike. The silver hub was Tim Rucks.

Dannywhac:
Heh - yep, the front and rear Fat Shaft II's that came out after yours are pretty much identical.....down to the thread-in freewheel section ;)

Is that your bike in the hub pics by any chance Alex?

diesel:
I'm guessing its a dicta freewheel and you put it on back to front (because it looks like it should go on that way)

If I'm correct.....? then it shouldn't be on that tight

I would suggest a large set of mole grips, so that you can get them on the edge and pinch it tight enough to stop it rotating on its bearings.

I ran RHD cranks (fitted backwards) on a LHD hub for years (cos there werent LHD cranks). I had to swap the pedal cages round on the pedal spindles but other than that its no different (its a myth that the pedals come undone if the cranks are on backwards!)

I done that on my New School Alex and one of the pedals undone itself while i was blasting through my home town, nearly tore a testicle off in the process  :LolLolLolLol: :LolLolLolLol: :LolLolLolLol:
