    I believe it is 30MM. I just took mine off and had to buy a socket to fit it. Socket's at work tho so can't 110% confirm but that's my story and im sticking to it.

      30mm. Remove the locking ring around the nut first. Needs to be a relatively thin wall socket.

        Get a screwdriver or pliers and just mangle that washer out.
        You won't be able to get the nut off, or even fit a socket unless it's out.

        If you don't want to spend like $35 on a nice protos get cheap china 30mm,
        put it on a drill, and spin it on bench grinder till it's thin enough.

        Hope that help and good luck.
