I'm building up a singlespeed for my girlfriend out of a 70-80s ladies racer, the bike was in crappy condition but now everything is fine but the rear weel.. the 5 speed freewheel is in love with the hub and no way to separate them...I tried in every everything: few days bathing in WD-40, the proper tool, some improper tool, heavy hammer..no way.
the original wheel has a tyre of 26" X 1 1/4", the rim should be 1" wide...
anybody has an old one laying around?
