• Talking of which, does anyone have any ideas how to remove a very stuck 5 speed screw-on as settle form a hub that is no longer in a rim

    Yeah, best thing to do is lace one side into another rim so you can get some leverage. Put the freewheel tool in a big vise and use the rim to undo it. If you can get any spokes in the freewheel side as well, all the better.

    Edit: if it’s a 2-prong freewheel and it’s really really stuck, you’ll probably find the tool rips through the prongs. You’ll have to weld it to get it off it’s like that.
