thread of the back nut
« on: August 03, 2018, 09:16:07 PM »
What kind of thread does the nut on the rear wheel have?, clockwise or anti-clockwise?

Pretty sure these are all reg threads....Right to tighten, left to loosen. These nuts would sure catch out a lot of owners if it were otherwise!
VERY tight is it?
Need an agility owner to jump in here.

Yeah, that's why I am silent (for once!), never had the back wheel off my Agility.

The rear wheel nut requires a 24mm socket. It's a standard thread as Stig says - anti-clockwise to undo.

Re-tighten to 120Nm torque.
