aaarrg...so my freewheel broke and doesnt pedal...so i thought i could take it off and replace it easily...got half of it off...now i cant get hte other part...it wont budge...keep in mind im doing it without a freewheel removal tool...but the thing will not budge with other methods....just to review the freewheel screws off clockwise?....
im pissed
The direction it turns as you pedal is the direction to tighten it.
Take it to a bicycle shop and have them unscrew it.

But don't curse at them.

do you mean flywheel?
The freewheel for the pedal chain, a local bike shop should be willing to take it off for you and you could likely use a bmx free wheel.

yep go to a bike shop with the rim. if you buy a new freewheel there they will probably take it off for free. PLUS! if you get a freewheel that has less teeth than the one you have now you will be able to pedal your bike faster and it will require less kicks to pedal start. win win situation dude.
yeah thats the plan..i wanted to replace it anyway...get a nice 13 toother.....right now its over 20...YIIIIKES!
