I have an old Specialized Rockhopper and I need to clean and sort the freehub out but I can't seem to remove it. I've got the bearings out but I figure out how to remove the freehub itself. At the top, just on the inside of the freehub it has two grooves as though you put a wide tool or something into to turn it.
here's a pic;- http://postimg.org/image/6hd4dhhj5/
There's no allen key or anything in the hub , any help and what I can remove it with would be greatly appreciated.

can't see the pic but freehubs often require a 10mm allen key in the centre to remove from the hub0

Mines was abit cruder but it worked and I managed to sort the hub. Just be careful of the bearings, there are a tonne of them inside.0
