So my front hub (shimano slx) totally seized today, conveniently 15 miles from home!
It appears that in doing so its screwed the 15mm maxle light on my rock shox fork mega tight and now I can’t remove the wheel!
I tried a “fairly” gentle tap with a mallet but all that seems to have achieved is to break off half of the collar that the lever seats In to unscrew.
I’ve bathed it both sides in gt85 which is all I have to hand and left it for the solace of a beer.
Anyone got any good ideas for unscrewing it. Is there a better oil to try. Seeing as the hub is f**ked anyway I could get the hacksaw out but I don’t want to have to spend £40 on a new maxle if I can help it!
