Removing bbs centre cap?
« on: 07 October 2009, 23:07 »
Bit of a daft question but how do you remove the centre caps off bbs rm wheels? Do they just prise off with a screwdriver? I assumed they would but I can't see a notch anywhere to insert something under them to prise them off & I dont want to go & snap or scratch anything. Thanks.

Pretty sure they pull off, yeah. The ring around the nut is part of the centre as well so dont try and take the nut out on its own.

'bbs centre cap spanner'? I don't have one of those. Do I need to get myself one to get them off?
