How do I remove a cassette without use of nuclear weapons?
I have this 7 speed cassette. I have a freewheel remover hexnut tool. I have a really big freaking wrench.
But it won't come off.
The bike it was on wasn't used for more than a year and didn't spend much time on the low gear so I wasn't expecting it to be as obscenely tight as this. Just to make sure I'm not messing this up, I was pulling counter-clockwise with the cassette facing me.
I don't have a vise to mount it onto and make this whole thing easier and 12" of wrench is all the leverage I have. Should I be able to do this without anything more specialized?
Any cool labor-saving tips would help too!
