  Was using one of the fixedgearlondon chainwhip/lockring tools, but the lockring won. Ive orderd a park tools hcw17 to replace it.

  Did chiselling the lock ring damage the hub at all? Might give that a go.

  Sooo.. I’ve got a steel lock-ring seized onto an aluminium hub. To make matters worse, there is some Loctite 243 on the thread (the only way to keep the lock-ring on those White Industries splined hubs).

  I’ve read that heating the thread will help with both the seizing and the Loctite… anyone got any tips for heating a lock-ring without damaging the hubs or any suggestions?

  Thanks.

  Hi! I’m trying to track down a half-link for a 1/8” chain… like this one -

  But can’t seem to find one anywhere, except international ebay.

  Anyone know where I can find one in the UK?
