I have a treasure chest filled with film canisters buried on a desert island. No, I won’t share the map

The freewheels I had the problem with were Suntour. I learned to hate Suntour freewheels for various reasons, of which that was one. I went through so many freewheel removers with those damned freewheels as well as getting really good at destructive removal of them.
