Torque wrench recommended.

How do you get your rear wheel nut off?

On my 748 I used a breaker bar and a length of gas pipe/scaffold pole.

I’ll give another thumbs up for Halfords Professional range although since they changed from that to ‘Advanced’ I think the quality is not quite as good but it’s still covered with their lifetime guarantee and the only thing I’ve managed to mangle was a 7mm spanner which wasn’t really being used for its intended purpose (getting a bit more leverage on an Allen key).

I also love Britool stuff and regularly use some spanners I was bought for my sixteenth birthday, making them over thirty five years old!
