It seems that the thread is stripped on my the rear sprocket of my track bike, it just turns around without undoing.

Any suggestions as to where I need to take it to get fixed?

Is it the sprocket or the threading on the hub?

I'm hoping its the sprocket

The key is to have the tools to destructively take it off, right? Ashfield Cycles? Bob at Stanmore? Shouldn't be rocket science.

I'm sure Lindsay would have an answer, but you'd have to wait for his return!!!

If I can't fix it, I'm stuffed for the fixie ride, I only have the one fixie wheel.

Thanks James, if I don't manage to resolve the problem, I'll take you up on it.
