How the hell do i get a freewheel off a tuff 2 wheel.
Do i have to destroy it or can it be taken off and replaced or refitted?
I dont have the freewheel removal tool.
Please help.

You can just use a hammer/chisel/screwdriverl.Make sure you`re loosening it off anti-clockwise.Best off investing in a proper tool though...

invest in a freewheel tool, much easier, and less damage ... to both the tuff and your hands

Take it to your local bike shop, I did, £2 later, sorted, didn't need to put any wear on my hammer and chisel, or risk knackering the hub/freewheel

Did you put it back on yourself or did they do it. I only need it off to fit the dust cover on my skyway axle rebuild.

Put it back on myself, spin it on the thread by hand, once fitted back on the bike, pedalling tightens it up, simple stuff really, just hard work getting them off.
