Muel Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 its a tensile & i havent got a shimano bb tool eitherWell you need to get one. Either that or you will have to destroy the freewheel.Go and buy a BB tool, get a long bolt and a load of big washers, and bolt the tool into the freewheel/crank really securely.Next, put the tool in a vice and lamp it up solid.Then put a huge pole on the end of the crank arm, mine is about 5foot long, then it should just twist off.With the tool in the vice, the crank on top, it should turn anti-clockwise, but wait for someone to confirm this.
