I need to replace a spoke on my commuter, what tool do I need to remove an ACS screw on freewheel?
Cheers,

And lots of grunt! Helps massively if you have a vice to lock the tool in the use the wheel as leverage. It took two people using this method to get my last one off!
You will probably also need a vice / workbench and a large adjustable spanner.
Usually it will be a git to get off.
Best way I found is to clamp the spanner in a Black & Decker workbench. Attach the removal tool to the freewheel and clamp this in place with a quick release.
Grab the wheel (with the removal tool attached) and simply put this in the spanner / workbench and turn the wheel.
As above.
And when you put it back on put plenty grease on the threads 🙂
Spanner on removal tool. Then 5ft long steel tube over the end of the spanner. Then just push down on the tube with the wheel on the ground. Easy as.
