Feckin 'ell.
I've just ordered a freewheel convertor for my tuff IIs. But I think I will take up brain surgery instead.
Anbody wanna swap a coaster black NOS Tuff2 for a freewheel?
Anybody?
I'll pay the difference!

jezza I think you do still need the arm on there just to keep it all secure, not positive mind, but it wont do any harm with it on :daumenhoch:

looks cool too.

:-\ :-\
Looks like a little fabrication is gonna be needed here, i cant keep the arm on as it will ruin the look of the project thanks for all your help though very much appreciated.

Right, I'm very fecked off tonight.
Sat down to convert my coaster to a freewheel. Studied the threads here, got my cup of tea ready and a box of tools...
...haven't got a spanner big enough to get the fecking lock nuts off!!! :tickedoff:
Thought I would try with a large adjustable grip but the feckers are locked tighter than Bin Laden in his hidey-hole.
Gonna have to get a couple of 22mm spanners ready for a second attempt tomorrow.
Disappointed is an understatement.
