  1. what's the size of the nuts on the sprocket carrier of a 748?
    they seem to be an odd size!
     
  2. They're a fine pitch. M10 x 1.25 iirc

  3. the nuts on my carrier have a 15mm head. m10 is 17mm? or have i got that wrong??
     
  4. A lot of bikes are different when it comes to actual spanner/socket sizes.

    M8's can have a 12mm socket size

    There is no standard when it comes to socket sizes for a paticular thread size.

    That's why I tend to use more 9mm,11mm,14mm ect tools on bikes, than anything else, cars or machines.

    I think bikes are smaller for weight-loss gain, cost and accessability for tools when the bike is being assembled or for maint.
