I think you'll need two of these: BBB BTL-11 TurnTable. Not sure though.

if you dont want it on there any more my advise would be take to a bike shop where people like me have the tools to remove it with ease and with out damaging the hub ht e most they should charge is 50p or if there friendly they wil do it for free :wink: :wink:

Is this the correct method?

Sprayed with WD40 quite a lot the last several days. So far no single bit of movement.

Did you make sure you have a cassette like this one (page 9):

http://www.mtb-kataloge.de/Bikekataloge ... Tour93.pdf

If so, you did the right thing: keep the cassette in place with one tool, while trying to unlock the smallest cog counterclockwise with the other. Just to make sure: could you post a close-up of the hub taken from the side with the smallest cog?

Spikes/Pieter,

It is not like that one on page 9. That one is a 8s, mine 7s (it comes from a '92 S-works M2). Probably that does it make look different. Mine looks more like that Superbee 8) cassette (the one in front)

Will make a pic

If it is an older type in might be a freewheel. In that case, look for notches as described in this page:

If it is a freewheel, you will need a dedicated tool.

It looks like this, but the notches aren't there :?

I do not see something were a tool can be fitted.

The centersection does not rotate with the cassette.

I will take pics
