Sturmey Archer AW question
I have just bought a Rudge Sports from 1962, and upon inspection of the rear hub, I see that the sprocket is loose and the sprocket circlip has apparently fallen out of its retaining ring. Is that what I'm seeing? What is the best way to get that circlip back on to secure the sprocket?

I pry it on with a screwdriver. It probably has a spacer as well.

52t,
Yep, there is a flat spacer rattling around with it. I'll dig around in there. Thanks.
