So now I've
bought a freewheel from Evans for £4.99 along with some lithium grease which I will slather it with. The chap in the shop said I should go for the £29.99 because it has 4 notches in it for removal, this one only has two. As this sounds like a scam by the manufacturers, I'll chance it. As I have a couple of hills on my route, fixed gear is not for me so I've ordered what I think/hope is a compatible removal tool for the broken 4 notcher
from Amazon for £8 all-in. I got a puncture yesterday so that's another £4.99 gone - See how the costs clock up? Anyway, I'm hoping this isn't going to be another ordeal. I'm recording this for posterity.
