Wanted: 2 prong freewheel remover

[marklachapelle]

You will need an axle and a axle nut for that hub to stabilize and hold the remover square with the freewheel body. That freewheel is the reason spline type freewheels were invented.

Thanks, I'm prepared!

It may not work for this situation, but I once ground a large cold chisel down to fit the slots and used a large adjustable wrench to turn the chisel handle.

I'm going to save that as a hail mary

This is homemade, Timing hear from Buick using square stock welded to slots that were already machined into gear Providing thrust surfaces upon freewheel still intact. The flats on OP freewheel are gone. Nevermind the grease on everything. I don't see anyone ruining a proper tool on a lost cause.

Wow. I think that I have a tool on the way from California. I'll let you know.

A 6 pack of their favorite beer goes a long way!

Or mine!

I probably have one. My old bike shop guy gave me all his odd freewheel tools about 15 years ago when he was cleaning house. If you have a picture of the tool that would help. If I have it, it will be $45 shipped.

Stand by. I may have one on the way.

That looks like something you use to switch train tracks!

My homemade tool in action., It was easy- but the freewheel is brand new., The freewheel cutouts have to have something for tool to engage
