Rear sprocket nuts

I rounded one of the nuts on the rear sprocket, the dealer will have to order one, can I just get some stainless ones and some washers?

You should use Flanged Head M10 Nuts x 1.25mm thread pitch.

I would not use ordinary nuts and washers. Use the correct ones and also use a medium strength thread lock.

You probably rounded off the nut because of the thread lock. Best tool to use is a six-sided wrench which won't do that. Loosen them off before you take the wheel off the bike.

That's good info bob! You can bust a knuckly pretty good on those teeth if the socket slips!

Tons of sprocket nuts on ebay- I bought a set in anodized red for my new wheels from there... something like $20.
