Recommended Posts

Searched but no luck.

I want to get a freewheel removal tool for my eno.

Tarty's do this one

is it good? OR should I buy a White Industries one? if so, where!?

also, people metion about bolting the removal tool to the freewheel, what exactly do they mean?

Does anyone have a pic of it bolted?

thanks

Dan

That cyclo one will do. I'd expect the white industries one would be better quality but you'd only really need it in a workshop where its getting used all the time.

I havn't got a picture, but the best way to describe it is if you take your crank off. You'll put the freewheel tool into the slots on the freewheel. Then get a nut and bolt. Put the bolt through the hole in the crank where the BB usually goes then the nut on the end but not too tight. This stops the tool slipping when your getting the freewheel off. As you undo the freewheel loosen the bolt slightly as you go.

And thats that.

Right, thanks for replies.

Still not sure if I understand ( :$ ), but would it be ok to....

clamp the freewheel remover tool in the vice, then place the crankarm/freewheel on the tool (slots on tool into freewheel etc). Could I then use the crankarm as leverage to get it off?

As for the bolt idea, do I pass a bolt through the crank hole from the front of the crankside, from the back (i.e. the side the freewheel is bolted to)?

thanks

W"hy ask for a topic to be closed? what if someone has useful information to add to it at a later date?

Now if someone does want to do a search the topic title is 'please close' so I doubt they'll look at it, when the info they need could very well be in here....imo

I was thinking the same thing myself just couldn't be arsed saying it.

It really does my head in when people ask for topics to be close they are also the people that moan when people post the same topics all the time I don't give shit I just read what I think looks interesting.

I'm not having a go at the people that run this forum they do a great job of it.

Yeh i was nearly not going to say anything as generally these topis don't actually get closed, but they are still left with a shit title, I just think the idea of a forum is so that idea's comments and questions can be archived in some sort of way for future referance and such.....

alright....calm down...

I thought it should be closed as it uses up space on the server or something, but if you SO want it left up, then I'll change it back.

My first question was answered, and it was only a small question, and no-one 'could be arsed' to reply my second question, so I found out for myself and thought it might as well be closed..but meh

And for the guy that said 'it really does my head in' ... you knwo what really does my head in????

People having a moan or rant about such a minor thing...does it REALLY matter!?

I reserve my right to moan. I'm not making a big deal out of like it just annoys me. it works both ways if you didn't want a big deal made of it you wouldn't have replied. Its makes you feel better getting what you think into a subject. I'm not trying to piss you off or anything just saying I don't like it lol. Its no big deal at all I just wanted to make my thoughts heard. Sorry for having a go like it wasn't anything personal.
