tony283 Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 May sound daft but have you flattened the KEY TAB on the sprocket? Screwdriver and light hammering to flatten the tab then undo conventionally. Not usually too tight as it has the tab. Tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave dix Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 You need to wrap a chain or a chain-wrench around the sprocket to hold it , flatten the tab washer and undo normally (turn to the left) Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
