Tiagra 50W LRS - thanks everyone!

[UKChris1]

Just a quickie...

I've just finished servicing a mate's Ti 50W LRS. It is of an age and although not heavily fished had never been opened before! The outside had a little boat rash but nothing serious. Inside - not a mark - all perfect and clean - no wear on gears and all bearings, drag etc. sound. Could have done with a little more grease though!
Only issue was a left sideplate screw that resisted initial attempts to remove it. However, 48 hours of penetrating oil followed by the soldering ion on the screw head trick fixed that. Turned out that screw had no lock washer but the one next to it had two!

All back together and working perfectly.

So... many thanks to all you folks who have provided such excellent tutorials and advice on so many issues.
