Post by DomRR »

Can anybody tell me what size the standard rear wheel nut is on an NC29 please?

Bought a new chain and it needs it's first adjustment but none of my sockets fit the nut!

its a big un and normally pretty tight an extension bar is good, i got a telescopic wheel spanner from LIDLs for £3 made this job easier.

for really tight nuts you want to get yourself a breaker bar..........

really long and give you great leverage!!!!!!
