Ultegra 6800 Rear wheel service - Drive side nut came off
Hi All,
I was servicing my Ultegra 6800 Rear wheel and found a flat ring on the drive side round nut (there's groove for it) cracked in half and fell out. After that, when I used my two 5mm allen keys to remove the round nut on the non-drive side, the drive side loosened instead. So I wasn't able to pull the axle out from the drive side. Now I'm stuck with an axle I can't remove correctly to service the bearings.
I'm tempted to grab onto the threads of the drive side so I can remove the round nut on the non-drive side but that'll probably cause another problem and I'd still be missing the broken flat ring in groove. I need advice or maybe I bite the bullet and take to the LBS.
Thanks in advance for any help. JF
