Hey guys, today I'm going to remove and reinstall the freewheel
without specific tools
This freewheel came from the Peugeot UO-8 in the 1970s, I need to remove it in
order to replace the broken wheel spokes
The lock ring has two holes, in order to remove the freewheel, you need to turn
the lock ring clockwise, find the right allen key that will fit into the hole
Use the hammer to knock it clockwise
When you remove the freewheel, the ball bearings will spread out around the
wheel hub, so make sure you put a tray or something underneath to catch them
Put a small amount of grease around the hub in order to hold the ball bearings in place
When you put back the ball bearings, make sure you put 47 ball bearings
Not 48 or 46
It has to be 47, otherwise the wheel will come off eventually
You have to turn the lock ring counterclockwise
