REMOVING THE WHEEL
If you have typical road bike rim brakes, open the quick-release lever at the
brake (Shimano, SRAM) (a) or shift the pin in the brake lever/shifter unit on the
handlebars (Campagnolo) (b).
If your bicycle has cantilever and V-brakes you first have to unhook the brake
cable from the brake arm. To do this, grip the rim with one hand and press the
brake pads and/or arms together. In this position the usually barrel shaped
nipple of the lateral brake cable or the brake hose (of V-brakes) can easily be
disengaged.
If you have disc brakes (hydraulic or mechanic), check the position of the brake
pads through the inspection window. In this way you will be able to tell after the
removal whether the brake pads are still in their correct position. Read the brake
manufacturer’s manual.
If you have derailleur gears, you should shift the chain to the smallest sprock-
et before removing the rear wheel. This shifts the rear derailleur right to the
outside where it does not interfere with the removal of the wheel. Open the
quick-release of the wheel, as described in the chapterUsing quick-releases
and thru axles”.
If you cannot remove the wheel after releasing the nuts, this is due to the drop-
out safety tabs. They are metal catches which engage with recesses in the drop-
outs. Just release the quick-release adjusting nut a little and slip the wheel past
the tabs.
You will find it easier to remove the rear wheel, when you pull the rear derailleur
slightly backwards (c). Lift your SCOTT road bike a little off the ground and give
the wheel a light blow with your hand so that it drops out.
WARNING
If you purchased a SCOTT bike with hydraulic disc brakes, never turn your
SCOTT bike upside down for repair work, i.e. with the handlebars and saddle
underneath, otherwise the brake can fail.
CAUTION
Rotors can become hot, so let them cool down before removing a wheel.
