Removing a wheel
Release the wheel bolts on each side of the wheel.
Note: Pay attention to the position of the washers when you remove them.
Mount the wheel and washers in the same order and orientation as you remove them.
Changing an inner tube
If you have a puncture, you will need to remove and patch or replace the inner tube.
Note: A set of tyre levers is needed to remove the inner tube. This is not included in the box.
Remove the dust cap from the tube valve. Deate the tyre fully.
Push both sides of the tyre towards the centre, away from the rim, to loosen the tyre.
Insert a tyre lever anywhere between the tyre and the rim but not close to the tube valve.
Insert the second tyre lever close to the rst one and press it down on the tyre lever.
Continue this process all around until you can remove the tyre.
After the tyre is removed, carefully remove the inner tube, starting with the valve.
Check the inner surface of the tyre for signs of damage or foreign matter.
After the tube has been repaired, partially inate the inner tube using a bicycle pump.
Carefully feed the inner tube into the tyre, starting with the valve. The valve must be
aligned with the hole in the rim.
Replace the tyre in the rim, one small section at a time. For the last part, use the tyre
levers to ret the last section.
