I'm rostered to work the weekend but trying to get a RDX (Rest Day Exchange) mate  :(

The weekends are always the hardest to cover as most, when resting the weekend, don't want to work. I don't blame them.

Lace the one side that you can get the spokes in and you will then be able to remove the freewheel with ease.

If the freewheel has just been screwed onto a loose hub, you should be able to just unscrew it again (it's not like it's tightened with use)

if you're struggling Al, get your wife to do it  ::)

These dont happen to be the Zeds you had on on your StreetBeat are they?

If so I think it explains the reason why your tyre kept coming off!  :-X ;D ;D ;D
