Help! Cush drive / sprocket flange retaining nuts size

Pretty Kin · Dec 23, 2013

I'm changing my rear sprocket out to a 41 tooth, I don't have the correct size socket to remove the 6 cush retaining nuts that tighten to the rear sprocket flange? Do I need a special socket for these (6) nuts? There not normal hex head nuts? a 15mm socket is to small and 17mm is too big, I'm assuming its a 16mm socket, but I have to go buy one so I just want to be sure before I head out to lowes

Thanks!

It's a 14 mm polygonal nut as far as I remember. So you will need a polygonal 14 mm socket end.

That's a negative Kraai, I have a 14mm socket as well as a 15mm and they are both to small. I'm looking for a more of a definitive answer on the 16mm socket fitting the polygonal nut.
