can someone please let me know what socket size I need for the rear wheel on NC30? Gonna borrow one from someone at work c/w torque wrench with any luck.
Then once my arm is out of its cast I'll be able to attempt the wonderful job of hammering away at the wheel in a vain attempt at removing it from the bike.

borrow a breaker bar whilst your at it...much easier to loosen it off and never use a torque wrench to loosen tight nuts/bolts....one thing i was taught when i was at college.....torque for the rear nut is 120 nm-88.5lbs ft
