Hey guys, any ideas apart from the usual on how to shift a MEGA tight engine sprocket nut? It’s not rust/corrosion as it’s brand new bike!

Impact socket gun is the way to go + a bit of heat!

Normally that is the way to go, (but there are socket guns and there are socket guns) but if it's a lock nut, or is fixed with loctite, sometimes all that happens is each impact just moves it a tiny bit and the loctite or locking whatever doesn't move and it springs back.

In that case, constant pressure from a long breaker bar is required.

Finally sorted, impact wrench and new socket, phew!
