Thanks. Keith for general information on freewheels (and links to the more modern Shimano freehub/cassette system) see: http://sheldonbrown.com/gloss_e-f.html#freewheel Shimano offer a tool TLFW30 for their recent (post 85?) freewheels. Park do range of high quality tools and also have excellent on-line information on the proper way to use them. The specifics on the freewheel and cassette tools are he http://www.parktool.com/tool_indexes/catindex_fr.shtml with links from each tool that tell you how to use them. Sometimes they suggest the use of special tools that might be useful in a professional context but are not essential. The need for the correct freewheel tool can't be avoided unless you are happy to spend some time destroying the freewheel and have a (large) appropriate general purpose tool to remove the last bit. Since freewheel parts are made from very hard steel and may bite back harder than the teeth of a Stilson wrench or other similar tool can stand there is a risk of spoiling a large expensive tool to save the fairly modest cost of the proper tool. -- Martyn Aldis, e-mail ================================================== ============================ |

One in the same but good luck. Sometimes
very hard to remove. I'll take removing a cassette any day over a freewheel. Only one freewheel left. |
