Rear Wheel Removal – Arc Model
To remove the Arc rear wheel, follow these steps:
1. Place the bike on the kickstand.
2. While standing on the right side of the bike, lean
the bike towards the kickstand to lift the rear wheel
o the ground slightly. Grab the foot platform and
rotate the drive arm forward while shifting into 8th
gear (the smallest cog on the cassette).
3. Open the rear brake quick release. See the Brakes
section above for detailed instructions on how to
open your brake quick release system.
4. Open the quick release lever on the
rear wheel axle. Loosen the tension nut by turning
it counterclockwise while holding the quick release
lever still. Continuing loosening the tension nut until
there is enough space for the wheel to detach from
the bike.
5. Lean the bike gently on the kickstand to provide
enough space between the wheel and the ground
for the wheel to drop out of the frame. Push the
rear wheel down and away from the frame.
Lifting the bike higher o the ground may facilitate
this process.
6. Remove the chain from the cassette so the wheel is
completely free from the bike.
