Miami sun rear axle problem?
#1
Hello everyone, i have a older Miami sun tricycle & i'm trying to remove my rear wheel to get them true but ran into a problem removing the left rim because it doesn't have a nut on the end unlike the other side that does but rather it's tappered with like a round ring(maybe i have to break this ring off, looks like the only way, not sure) keeping it from coming out, i have removed the axle completely from the hosing with one rim still attached.
i would like to thank everyone in advance for their help.

Is there any way you could make that picture a little larger?
Good maintenance to your Bike, can make it like the wheels are, true and smooth!

You are welcome, is it going to be easy to put it back together? Just out of curiosity. I have an adult trike Schwinn Meridian and had to pull apart the back axle assembly, was actually fun Smile .
