What size is the rear wheel nut

[Limey]

Thanks in advance. :-D

Should be 46mm. Had to order my socket online. Kinda hard to come by in the stores.

I got my 46mm from Triumph. 1/2 in drive. 108 Ft. lbs to tighten.

Thanks guys. I'm lucky enough to have a tool shop down the street that sell pretty much any tool thats ever been made.

Got to replace the rear tire again. #7. Found her in the garage this morning flat with a nail in it, thank god it was shagged anyway, not like the last one that blew after a couple hundred miles.

i found a screw in my tire about 500 miles ago. i plugged the sucker and haven't had a single problem.

Seven tires in how many miles?

Geez, Limey you gotta stop riding through building sites. You sure are having bad luck with tires. :???:

Another option is to go to an auto supply shop that has free tool rental. I went Auto Zone and borrowed one. They charge a deposit but refund it in full when you return it.

Never mind the wheel nut, what the hell size is that big mother that holds the front sprocket on?

Does anyone have the technique for replacing the front sprocket with a smaller one ( like how do you hold the bike whilst you undo the humungeous nut, stop the rear wheel turning, etc etc)

Any suggestions (clean) appreciated.
