NC35 rear wheel stuck when on paddock stand
After many years i have finally got myself a rear paddock stand.
Up on the stand and tried to take off the rear wheel but it's takes a real effort - several bashes around the rim with rubber mallet to get it off... When it does come off, its as if its under tension (comes off with a pop)
Had it off and back on a couple of times since Aly got it powdercoated for me so fairly sure its not tight because of the thicker paint. Also used his rear stand at the time with no probs.
Leads me to think that it could it be my new stand causing the problem? Or am i missing something else obvious?

The stand and the wheel don't touch each other...
You need to get it off and then copaslip the mating surfaces. My heels knock off no problems as I am always swapping them around.

Sorted.
Gave the hub and inside of wheel a light sand and coated with copper grease.
Now slides on and off like a good un.
Cheers!
