    OK, I’ve been a bit of an idiot and forgot to bring my lockring tool back (again!)

    I swapped my wheels over, but didn’t have time to finish the job. Now have a back wheel, and then the sprocket and spacers (its singlespeed), but nothing to tighten the lock ring with.

    Any alternatives to the proper tool so I can ride tomorrow?

    Flat blade screw driver and mallet, preferably a rubber one.

    in desperation, I’ve used a screwdriver and hammer – does the job ok
    slugwash, what’s the point in using a rubber mallet and a screwdriver? just use a normal hammer but don’t hit it as hard…
