DNP freewheel removal tool??
#1
Hey Guys,
I thought I had all the freewheel/cassette tools I would ever need, but I have seemed to forget one.
Been working on a Next womens bike and it has a DNP freewheel that I believe needs to be replaced. Is there such a tool?? Didn't see one listed in the Park tool manuel...
What do I need to get this DNP freewheel off??
Also, is there a way of relubing these type freewheel's?? I believe someone left this one in the rain a while and it is real scratchy and noisy.
Thanks,
PJ

Usually a FR-1 should fit in...

For lubrication, medium oil is fine, put some while turning the mechanism

Nope, not a FR-1. It has a ring on the outside of the smallest gear with some notches on it.
Do you think a Spanner tool might work??
