Re: [St] Rear Sprocket replacement

["Dan Wallander" <dan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

There is no stake nut for the rear sprocket.  There is one for the rear hub, 
but that isn't disturbed for this job.

There is a stake washer for the front sprocket.  I have reused mine several 
times, but some people replace them every time.  I think that's overkill. 
It helps to have an impact wrench for that front nut.
