14T freewheel removal help please

(1/2) > >>

mamadirt:
Wanting to replace my Dicta 14T freewheel with a 13T Ody so bought a Park Tool FR-8 freewheel remover.



Problem is that it is a whisker away from fitting either the Dicta or the Odyssey  >:(  - the prongs on the tool seem just a tad too big.  Can anyone help please?

john4130:
hammer and chisel usually works, expect to lose some skin off your knuckles though.

Spen69:
Pretty sure the Oddy one is a custom removal tool. I use them and my lbs has the right remover so the just spin off.

You not got a decnt bike shop to try before you resort to the skinandknuckleremoval method using a hammer etc?

I found there are so many variants of tool available, there will be a tool for it, it's just finding one.

VOIVOD:
 :)  Could be wrong but fairly sure the the Odyssey 13T freewheel needs a specific tool.The Dicta 14T freewheel takes a 30 mm 4 pin removal tool but I have used a 30 mm 2 pin removal tool with no problems,cost about £6 from Bankrupt Bike Parts on E-Bay.
