And point the breaker/cheat pipe FORWARD and push down!!! DONT point the pipe to the back and lift up.......you will turn your bike over. Have someone hold the bike and brake on for you..........

Am I right/wrong in thinking that you turn the sprocket nut clockwise to loosen it, designed that way so it doesn't loosen up while sprocket gear is rotating counter clockwise...someone correct me if I am wrong!
