Re: [ST] rear tire nut

["Phil Guy" <phil@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I was able to remove mine using a 1-13/16" socket with a long piece of pipe
fitted over the end of the socket wrench and SWMBO standing on the rear
brake pedal, came undone quite easily with all that extra leverage.  Don't
forget to have a good Torque wrench handy to replace it to the correct
tolerance.  Subsequent removal has been possible with just the length of the
torque wrench and helper on the brake pedal.

Wesley,

The nut size for the rear wheel is 46 mm.  I bought a 1-13/16" socket which
fits and should work.  I have yet to get the nut off though.  I will attempt
to use an impact wrench on the next go around.
