Grab a wire brush or an old toothbrush and give it a quick brush off to get rid of any sand and built up road grime etc. And yeah, maybe give it a squirt with some lube to prevent it from becoming stuck later dwon the track.

I find that doing it like this works a treat.

Hope that helps you! :)

wd40 wait 5 mins or so then get a hammer and put the c-spanner on the thing and wack the behind with a hammer make sure its going the correct way lol you might be tightening it lol

Just make sure the cogs are level before the whacking to eliminate cross threading..but spray the poo out of it, make the adjustments & give it a lil wipe n scrub to cleanup from any foreign particles this assures you can see the quality of work uv done & as a reference to next time ur under there making adjustments.

Good luck

thanks for all your help guys... i ended up using the wd40 then put a flat tip screwdriver into the cog hole thingy and hammered it. hehe

Or you could put a breaker bar into the square hole in the C-spanner :P
