bikerpop33 Posted October 2, 2011 Share #1 Posted October 2, 2011 I'm trying to find out the socket size needed for the rear wheel axle nut on a 2nd gen. In the tech library I read a thread on removing the rear wheel that stated the size was 1 1/6 inch. Is this correct? With the front axle socket being a metric size (22mm) it seems the rear would be metric too. Just wanted to confirm before I go out and purchase the socket.

flb_78 Posted October 2, 2011 Share #2 Posted October 2, 2011 1 1/16" is the same as 27mm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikerpop33 Posted October 2, 2011 Author Share #3 Posted October 2, 2011 Thanks for the confirmation. Picked up the socket and got the tires off with no issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
