Hi
Got my new 550 brake disks front and rear.
Doing rear brakes first.
Wheel off, calliper off, have even removed the hub nut using special 36mm socket (***** of a job)
Removed two retaining bolts (13mm spanner). Released handbrake and
Expecting disk to wriggle off.
It seems stuck. In fact it 'feels' like the whole brake mechanism wants to pull off.
Do I just yank it off?
Is it worth unwinding the handbrake adjuster?
Why does the manual advise removing the blooming big hub nut ? Seems the disk will just slide off the hub. Grrrrrr
