Hub dust cap removal

[Jordi]

How do i remove the dust cap off normal locked hubs without destroying it?

The copper/brass colour metal one? I think i just used a long pokey screwdriver and gently tapped it under the edge of the cap with a hammer

[Jordi]

I tried that and it just won't budge. Bigger pointy thing and bigger hammer maybe.

Ive always removed my top hats with twisses method if not take the the whole thing out find a socket that will fit and bash it through

Smash it up and fit some FWH

I'm not too fussed on freewheel hubs. Any i've come across i've been selling. Easy money.

But you were so excited about your increased MPG after the RL?

[Jordi]

I know, i know. If i come across another set i might fit them and see how MPG goes up.

The £100 quid i can get for them helps a helluva lot with buying other parts though.

£100 still can't believe people pay this much for them, I wouldn't pay more than £45

i still have my set sitting in the workshop doing faff all!
