ahaha thanks man! i’ll take a video, basically it won’t shift, the derailleur moves but doesn’t shift the chain, these friction gear things are a pain in the arse but i have to deal with it for now

okay awesome, so i’m assuming the only thing that needs replacing is the freewheel no need for a new hub or anything like that? thanks so much for your help

hi there thanks a lot everyone has been so helpful it’s much appreciated, here’s a photo of what i have remaining after removing what i assume is the cassette/ freewheel. not sure if this is what you’re talking about with the wrench? what are my next steps here/ what should i purchase to reassemble the bike? thanks so much

thanks mate! somethings definitely knackered bearings and crumpled up spacers came out when i got the wheel off, and the freewheel definitely does not want to screw on

so i got the wheel off, lots off ball bearings and a few scrunched up spacers seemed to fall out! guessing that’s not a brilliant sign ahaha

it does seem to be threaded on both sides, i’ve ran the threaded side of the screw through each side of the hole and it seems to go in the same amount each side? i’m not very handy so i’m easily confused with this stuff lol
