Cheers, I'm a little bit reluctant to put anymore pressure / force on the wheel or hub because I don't want to damage them. I think I'll just have to leave it place and ride it till it's knackered and then deal with it.

Cheers, they tried a vice and where definitely turning the right way haha.
They also removed the Centre part of the hub and clamped that but still nothing.

Is there a way to take apart the freewheel and then cut it in similar way to removing a stuck seat post?

Evening all, I come sealing advice for last resort freewheel removal.

I'm trying to remove a 7 speed sachs freewheel from a trispoke i picked up from here last week. Three shops have tried really hard and failed at getting it off.

The one on there at the moment might last a little while but If it goes the wheel is useless so id like to try and get it off and replace it.

The problem with removing it it he normal way is that the freewheel is so stuck that the center of the hub starts to unscrew so I'm looking for another way.

Any suggestions would be awesome.

According to what I've found it's not a spin,

Also the hub in my wheel isn't the same as the spin hub that mdcc_tester posted.

Wheel is currently at the shop again and I'm waiting to hear back if anything can be done.

After looking around online I've found out that it's a 'trispoke' brand wheel.
Hard to find much information on them because when you google the name it brings up every other company at the same time.

From what I can tell it's not the same hub as spin or hed/ specalized. It's somewhere between the two.

Any info on these wheels would be awesome.
Cheers.

Cheers for the help,
Because I've not got anything to loose I think I'll try and remove the freewheel along with the part of the hub and and soak it all in plus gas/ gt85/ coke or heat it up to try and break the bond and then stick it back in with a load of lock tight to see if it will budge.

Ok cheers I'll start looking for Info on spin hubs now.
It can only unscrew it so far and then It stops. But I haven't tried to hard because I didn't want to break it.

sorry cant seem to embed the photo but
the line on the hub behind the freewheel is where it starts to unscew.

Cheers @mdcc_tester,
I'll get some photos later on when I get home.

The hub is still stuck solid in the wheel but a part of it behind the threads for the freewheel is unscrewing if that makes sense.

I'm having some serious trouble removing the freewheel from a specalized tri spoke.
I've taken it to two bike shops and neither of them have been able to do it. It seems like the freewheel has seized and when they try to remove it the hub starts to unscrew just behind the threads.
it look like it's got sealed bearings on both sides if that makes any difference.

Any suggestions?

Cheers.

Cheers, it looked a similar shape to an unknown one I had and I've been on the look out for something to replace it.

2nd Dibs tri spoke rear please.
Pm on its Way.

I used a sturmey archer cable guide/stop a while ago and it worked perfectly.

Nice find. Looks very similar to a BSA path/track frame I brought here recently.
The lugs, braze ons and forks look pretty much identical.

Still trying to found out some more information about it so if I come across anything I'll let you know.

Could be tempted.
