Changing Chain and Sprockets

Anything to get the washer starting to bend onto the flats on the nut will do. A screw driver will do the job.  i usually use a flat punch to finish the job. I do it in a couple of places.


Don't forget to undo the front sprocket nut before removing the chain. A strong piece of wood through the wheel and resting on the swinging arm to stop the wheel turning will help. Easier than trying to hold the back brake on, especially if you are on your own.
You will need a 32mm socket and a good strong breaker bar to undo the nut. May need a tube on it to give extra leverage. Then have you a torque wrench to tighten the nut to the correct torque setting. Maybe borrow one if not.
