Posted: Sun Jan 26, 2014 12:05 pmA reamer is a good tool to have in the toolchest.
I went to an engineering supplies shop and paid a fortune for one.
They work well as you say on NSR rims but also on the cheapest alloy rims here in NZ......MRRC
Footscoot, I hadn't thought of a 2mm one...might investigate that further, thanks
