Bought a parktools tool (short stubby one) the splines slipped in further and the quick release also went through enabling me to hold it in place while I tightened it down
Thanks guys. I have reservations about another tool fitting. But I'm going to order some (I can always send back). Failing that I'll try the methods advised.
Thanks!
Yes, I remember trying to remove a cassette from this wheel before...in the end I had to undobthevaxle and slip it out of the way.
What kind of torque would you recommend?
