How hard is it to remove a casset and install a different one? My dilemma is that I'd like to get a King Disco rear hub for my trials bike and my Joker. But I run a road cassette/derailler 8 spd. on my trials bike and a 9spd mountain on my joker. Its not very economical for me to buy two King rear hubs so I'd like to find out what kind of tools I would need on install/remove a cassette.
 
Sometimes you can get by without the chain whip, i might result in a few busted knuckles though.... If you're going to constantly remove the cassette, go ahead and by one, unless you're a starving college student (like me) and then you should nigger rig your own. I drilled a piece of steel, and used a chain tool to connect a piece of old chain through the hole.

Thanks man...I don't really care to much cuz I live with a redneck from Alabhama...but most the folks here wouldn't care much for the nigger rig comment. Just keep a head up.
