Anyone have a suggestion for "easily" making a tool to remove/hold the odd little nut on the upper jockey
wheel of some Suntour derailleurs? Nut is round with 2 small notches cut into its edge. The nut is also recessed into the cage body.

If no special tool is required, would you mind sharing your work around for getting these off ?

Thanks
Robert

Needle-nosed pliers with fairly sharp points.
